Mother Dear, I love you! I will miss Poppa, tremendously just knowing he is no longer here in the body saddens my heart. I do understand it was time to go and be at rest. In my eyes Poppa was the conductor, the orchestrator of the greatest gift of all LOVE. Keeping family together was important it has always been a beautiful example for me to see. I am so grateful having had an opportunity to be apart of the family. Mother Dear, my deepest condolences to you and the entire family. Love Always ❤️ With love and a full heart

My prayers are with the Family in the time of lost

My deepest condolences to the Waller Family for your loss—Recalling a life well lived, Mr. Waller had a fantastic ability to tell a story and his favorite, his journey to creating the" best band on the east coast" The Walkers! I'm so proud to have known him! Antionette Haynes

My very deepest heart felt condolences to the Waller family,my father"Martin Holmes" and Mr.Waller were friends when I was growing up as a child and I have fond memories of them going crabbing with family and the kids and having all those fun family get together's.Memories will live forever and I remember Mr.Waller.

When I first met "Pops" in the family's basement on Ladies Miles road in the early '70s whereas he was the manager of my band, and meeting the rest of the family, I was indeed blessed to meet him again in 2016 after 45 years later. Going on the road with him and "Mama Ruth" on my first gig to Kentucky with the sisters was truly an awesome experience as him and I bonded. I'm so grateful and blessed to be connected to him and the family. His wisdom and spirit overwhelmed me to the fullest and his laughter on our last phone conversation will stay with me for the rest of my life. Rest in peace "Pops". Love you man!

Let me begin with how sorry I am, to learn of Pop Waller's passing & my deepest condolences to his beautiful family. He was Pop Waller to me, and I was blessed to know him personally & professionally. He made sure that you understood your worth as an entertainer, and that others understood it too! He made sure that you were treated w/ highest regard, and played No games with anyone! I was honored & fortunate to be Able to work with Pop Waller and learn from him. He will be greatly missed, but I'm thankful that I was blessed to have been in his company. Forever greatful, Tiki Barber
