I have just learned of the passing of Walter Katlovsky. I was privileged to know him when he was the psychologist and consultant for the mental health center in Dekalb, Il. He also had served as faculty member and professor of psychology at Northern Illinois University in Dekalb for many years. He was a most knowledgeable and respected psychologist, and tremendously helpful consultant to the clinicians at what was known at the time as Ben  Gordon Community Mental  Health Center.  He was very helpful to me in my role as a clinical supervisor there. What a wonderful  gentleman and friend. May he rest in peace.

I first met Walter when he was on the board of directors at Imperial Harbours. He welcomed us in with his big smile and always made us feel that we were friends. I think he loved his community here and I know we loved him. I never heard him say a bad word towards anyone. He will be missed by all of us.   Carol & Bob Harrison

Walter was our upstairs neighbor here at Imperial Harbours Condominiums for the last seven years.  
He was a caring, quiet, friendly man and welcomed us as new neighbors.  We remember him attending our monthly condo luncheons.  He will be greatly missed.

My deepest sympathy for the family of Walter. He was my neighbor for almost 5 years.  I wish I had taken the time to know him better. I've learned so much about him over the last week. What an incredible legacy and charitable person!  I'll miss hearing you moving around furniture and your TV. Such a kind and gentle soul. What a wonderful life you lived!
