Walter loved people. Whether he was greeting the congregation at Hurst Christian Church, where he was a long-time member, having his weekly coffee meeting with friends, helping yearbook advisors create their school’s yearbook, or being with his family, he always had a story to tell, usually a mischievous and funny one that was often repeated.
Walter loved the Lord, his family, his friends, traveling in their Airstream trailer and the US Marine Corps.
He is survived by his wife of 70 years, Marilyn; his granddaughter, Neile Richardson and husband Kent; great-grandchildren, Ally Richardson and Brooks Richardson; son in law, Jerry Johnson and wife, Joyce. He is preceded in death by his daughter, Alyson Adams and son, Neal “Rebel” Adams.
