    Condolences on the passing of Walt. Sister, Mary & Family

  • June 24, 2021

    One of the last official things I did in my gliding career, was to sign the papers documenting a long & fast cross country flight Walter did at the Edmonton Soaring Club a few years back. I have to admit to some mixed feelings about his success, because it seemed to highlight something I was definitely missing - but hope to return to. But in all honesty I can't think of a person I would rather have such a flight. Despite not having spent a great deal of time with Walter & his charming wife Grace, the time we did share, always seemed full of passion for not only gliding but life in general. As Walter said, **he chose his retirement rocking chair to have wings**, & I say they worked well, as the previously mentioned flight confirmed. To Grace & the many others who will miss him dearly, I hope his passing strengthens your joy for life, instead of weakening it. And BLESS HIS SOUL, as he has ours! Sincerely, Ron Cattaruzza
