Walter was an avid bowler and had many friends in his bowling community. Walter was well decorated within the bowling community with several 300 games. Those who knew Walter knew his love for sports, bowling, and enjoying spending time with his family. To a lot of his friends, he was known as “Spartie” for his love of Michigan State Football and Basketball. When he wasn’t cheering for them, he always enjoyed watching basketball and talking about his days playing at Central High School in Columbus, Ohio.
