I was so sorry to learn of Walter's death. He was my husband's second cousin. They looked so much alike as they aged! Walter connected so many dots in Ernie's genealogy and now both are gone as Ernie passed in May, 2012. Julie and family, my hearfelt condolences. - Posted by: Donna Einarsson () on: Nov 21, 2013
