He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Walter loved his work at Red River College. His 25 years in Computer Services were a source of joy in his life. Before his illness Walter proudly helped develop the new downtown Princess Street Campus and loved to tell stories to his family and friends of its progress. He enjoyed puttering and doing chores around the house - in particular rebuilding the old garage, collecting stamps and creating stained glass work. Walter loved his dogs. He taught obedience classes, showed English Springer Spaniels and was a proud member of the Manitoba Sporting Dog Association. The family wishes to thank Dr. Pat Harris and the staff at Grace Cancer Care, Dr. Shahida Ahmed at Cancer Care Manitoba and, Dr. Janice Mulder and all the wonderful Palliative Care Staff. He was treated with kindness, dignity and respect for which we will always be grateful. In keeping with Walter's wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no formal service. Friends and loved ones are always welcome to call and drop in for coffee. The well wishes Walter received during his illness were of great comfort to him.
