Uncle John;
Sorry I just found out about your passing today. You were the baby brother to my Dad, and I feel because of that you had all the artistic abilities, while Dad was the more mechanical kind of guy. I guess because you moved to Florida and became immensely successful as a photographer,I always looked at you as being a free spirit, in this way, even though w sort of lost touch, I always looked up to you.   Because of your talents, you got to meet alot of well know people, and  go on the road with the Miami Dolphins! How cool was that! One time you brought Curtis up to Long Island for the Dolphins Jets game 1972 or 1973, and you both were staying at Aunt Deedee and Uncle Bob's house in Massapeaqua. Curtis and I were bored and saw some kids down the street playing touch football in the street, We tried to join but the older kid was being a jerk, his younger brother talked him into letting us play and we weren't so bad, we scored a touch down each, i think. those kids were Alec Baldwin and his brothers. I like to think now you are fishing with my Dad on his boat The Napa, off Sheepshead Bay knockin down some beers a talking about the old days. See you on the other side, in Valhalla. Prayers to Curtis, Mark, Sandy, and John Jr.
Respectfully,
HAROLD E. "TED" WALTHER Jr.
VIRGINIA BEACH, VA

May God Bless His Soul, He was like a second father to me growing up, he used to take me everywhere, Flying Kites, Fishing, to Lion Country Safari before it was opened to the public, he was the senior Photographer for the Miami Hearald, John would take us to Miami Dolphin football games back in 1966 when they became a team, and for years afterward. I pray that God Brings him Peace. God Bless you, and Thank you for all of the GREAT Memories.
