Becky and I so very sorry about Walt's passing. Walt and I shared one of the longest friendships at Penton. He was one of the most friendly and creative artists that I had the pleasure of knowing. We shared good times and some very challenging times through our years at Penton, but always came up with a positive end. Walt's terrific sense of humor, accompanied by his powerful work ethic, made our professional lives a joy. I miss him, as so many do. Becky and I offer our heartfelt sympathies to Cindy and all of Walt's family and friends.

Please accept my sincere condolences on they passing of Walt. He was such a funny and interesting man! He had the best stories from when he served. I used to send him his daily horoscope every day when we worked at Penton. Such a large personality will be sorely missed.

We only knew your dad from gatherings at Susan’s house; but he always was such a nice guy with a genuine smile. We are praying for him and the entire family.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

My condolences to Walt's family, who he often talked about with those close to him.
I knew Walt for 30+ years working at Penton, and especially when he joined the H&P staff.
Walt was a very talented and versatile artist who really knew his stuff. The photo I attached is from a fun time we had playing miniature golf during a staff "business meeting." Walt sure knew how to have fun!
