I met Walt years ago, at one time we were very close. I gave him his first son, Kemp, and despite the fact we parted ways he owned up, paid support and kept in touch. Sorry to hear of his passing

Sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the Bible at Revelation 21:4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.
