Walter Ife of Brentwood, NY passed away on April 9th, 2021 at the age of 87, his loving children at his side. Predeceased by the love of his life, Evelyn, with whom he shared 27 very happy years of marriage, he is survived by his four children, a son-in-law and two daughters-in-law and seven grandchildren. He finally joins his beloved wife after a courageous battle against Father Time and an ailing heart. Walter was known by all for his good nature and unfailing sense of humor. He was happiest surrounded by family, whether a quiet chat with one of his four children or amidst all seven of his grandchildren at family parties and holidays. A supportive and loving father, a devoted and exceptional grandfather and a proud veteran of the US Army, Walter will be honored with a wake on Monday April 12 at Boyd-Spencer Funeral Home in Babylon, NY from 2 to 4:00 pm and 6:00 to 8:00 pm, followed by a funeral mass on Tuesday, April 13 at 11:00 am at St. Luke’s Roman Catholic Church in Brentwood, where he was a founding parishioner and attended Mass regularly. After the Mass he will be interred at All Saints Cemetery in Great Neck, NY.
In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Good Samaritan Hospital in West Islip, NY.
