Walt worked in the construction business for over 40 years and in his free time he loved to travel, hunt and fish. During their retirement years Walt and Dorothy spent the winter months in Yuma, Arizona with friends. Walt especially loved the time he was able to spend with friends and family at their property he so loved at 3-Rivers in Central Oregon.
We will always remember Walt in his flaming decked out red truck and his fun loving personality! He will be missed by all who knew him and loved him.
