So sorry to hear this. Ralph called me. Red was a good man. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.
I’m so sorry to hear of Walter (Red) passing. He was one of my favorite cousins in the Nichols family. He was a good person with a great personality. To Donna and the entire family, you have my deepest sympathy. Love to all.
The Vivian Boss family from Chamois sends its deepest sympathies to Donna, Jeff, and Chris and their families. Our dad, Larry Boss, was Reds best friend in school. They are probably playing a game of basketball in heaven! You are in our thoughts and prayers. He was a super guy and will be missed by many. 🙏💕
I am so sorry for your loss. He was a great uncle. May Red rest in peace.
We have lost one of the greatest man that my father had told me he ever been associated with .I’ve know wally ever since I could walk and he alway had answers for everythig and would take time to hang out with us kids. He had what it took to end up with 2 of the greatest sons that he or anyone could ask for. I know he had to be extremely proud of Jeff and chriss. I so sorry this time has come but he had a pretty wonderful long life and much love we wish you well
