“In loving memory of Walter John Slack, Someone so special will not be forgotten. I was a neighbor to Walter. He was so caring and kind. Always. I will miss our coffee and cheese cake gatherings to share all the latest news. His love of cats was so sincere. He took care of "his girls" very well. I know they will be missing him, too, as they are left now to fend for themselves. My prayers are with the family of this wonderful memorable man. I'm glad our paths crossed all those years ago. RIP”

“In loving memory of Walter John Slack, Sharing in your sorrow. With love and friendship. The news of Walter's passing was such a shock for me. I will always remember all the times we spent in fun conversations we had over "coffee, cheesecake, gossip and giggles". He gave me advice regarding jobs and finances. He lived and loved a private life in his beautiful home and oasis he created with the many trees and flowers he surrounded his house in. I will miss you. I am honored to have known you.”
