This picture was taken on our trip to Tenn, Back in 2017. Walter is pushing the stroller with his 3 month old Granddaughter "Annabelle", He loved having the time with her. In 2019 Walter was blessed with having a Grandson also; "Jacob". His Family meant everything to him. Our son Chris blessed us with a wonderful addtion by finding a Wife that enhanced our family, having two beautiful children. Our Daughter Lisa is "Down Syndrome" and will never marry. Dad spoiled her with Love & she's having adjustment issues with not having him with us any longer. Walter was a Wonderful Husband, Father, Friend and for 45years I know I was "LOVED!" He stays in my thoughts and Prayers always & Forever! "Till we meet again, My Love!" Your Truly
Mrs. Carol J. Gripko
