Walter was one of the best bosses I ever had. He was always full of life and had a brighter outlook on life. He taught me so much when I first started my career in 2000. He loved driving and showing off that convertible Camero. I remember once he took the office plants outside and was misting them with water when Sue and I laughed as we told him they were all fake plants. He was an amazing person that touched many lives. His Irish quotes were the best. Rest in peace my sweet friend.

So sorry to hear about Uncle Walter. I'm sure he and my Dad, Harry, are doing an Irish jig and raising a glass.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

We have had the joyful pleasure of knowing Walter and Judy for almost 30 years. They definitely were an example of what true love is all about. The admiration between the two of them was unique in today’s world. I came to know Walter during one of the most horrible years of my life. In 1992, I lost my high paying job, our house was broken into and we lost lots of treasures and my father passed away suddenly. It was Walter that got me and my family through this dark period of my life. His positive attitude and constant story telling about what poor grandma would do got me and my entire family through that year. We never could forgot what he did for us and so we became life long friends. Occasionally, we would get together with Walter and Judy and exchange pleasant stories about our children and our grandchildren. These were always very nice times. As time went on we relied on Walter’s life experiences and knowledge to get us through other hard times. As it turned out, Walter became a mentor and coach for me through out my working years. He was always there with a story, a suggestion and positive reinforcement. He never ever said he had no time. His unselfishness is what made him such a wonderful person. We are very, very sad to hear that we will no longer hear about grandma or see that twinkle in his eyes when he did a good deed for someone. The hole that is in all our hearts can only be hilled with all those wonderful memories, his good dead’s and those wonderful stories that we will remember all our lives. May God have mercy on his soul. Judy may your grief and that of your whole family become less and less every day. Thank you,Walter, for being such a dear friend! Ali and Cas Kleczko

Sending love; despite 92 wonderful years, no one is ever really ready to say goodbye. So maybe don’t- maybe ‘I’ll see you later’ feels much better. 💛 He was loved, as are you all. Blessings ✨
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Dear O’Neill Family, My sincere sympathies to you all. I can only say the passing of a parent is a surreal time. Always present in our lives…and then to leave us whether we are prepared or not…it’s difficult. But the memories are what you now hold on to…and they become more precious as time goes on. May your memories of your Dad bring you much comfort in the coming days and years ahead. Sending prayers and love. Mark Rescigno
