It was my pleasure to know and work with Walt during the 15 years he was at Carol City High School. He was always upbeat and professional, willing to help and give advice to the younger teachers. Walt was the mainstay of the vocational department and sent many students on to be gainfully employed and contributors to society. I enjoyed his friendship, sense of humor and loyalty greatly. Walt was successful at whatever he did and set the example for others to follow. He will be missed.
