Mr. Walter was such a kind man in our community. It was always a pleasure working with him as a Police Juror. He and I even tilled the flower beds in the median on W Hutchinson together. He will certainly be missed by our community!

Mayor Chad Monceaux

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Walter for a couple of years. He always worked hard for the people he served in the community. He loved his family and spoke of them often. Rest in Peace Mr. Walter.

Tessa Butler

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
