Our dad passed away peacefully at his home in Lamona, WA. He was reunited with his parents, Rev. Elias and Rachel Walter, brothers John (Annie) and Joe, two sons Daniel Jacob (5 mos.) and William Eugene (12 yrs.). He was born in Fort Macleod, Alberta, Canada, where he resided until the age of 30. When he was 21 years he married his wife of 49 years, Rebecca Hofer of Turner, MT. They moved to Lamona in 1972. They raised their family: Thomas, David (twin to Daniel), Janet (William), Deborah Walter, Carol (Eli) Wollman; grandsons: twins Donovan and Ethan, Davis and Evan of Saskatoon, SK.

In addition to his children, he is survived by his brothers Jake, Leonard and Eli of Lamona, WA; sisters Rachel (Bill) Gross of Espanola, WA and Annie (Eli) Hofer of Walsh, B.C., sister-in-law Annie (John deceased) as well as numerous nieces, nephews and their families, who all loved him dearly.

We grant thee eternal rest, Dad, your memory will forever be a source of comfort for us now, knowing that you are at peace and rest.

John 14:27, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives, do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid."
