Walter was a loving Pops, wooly grandpa and a kind soul to all that met him. Whether it was horses, women or whiskey, Walter always had an incredible way of making someone smile. Born on the Eastern Slopes of the Canadian Rockies, Walter was a true Mountain Man, with a huge wooly beard and usually a ponytail of hair under his cowboy hat, he could shoe a horse, drive a team, ride a colt, pack a mule or in earlier years put his daughters hair in a bun for dance class, or teach the boys to shoot a gun. Anyone who met Walter was touched by a unique soul that will never be found again. His kind heart and quick wit along with his tales of years gone bye will be dearly missed by all that had the honor of meeting him. The legacy of this cowboy will be lived on forever through his children and in the stories he shared with people from across the world. A Celebration of his life will be held September 25, 2019 from 2:00pm to 4:00pm at Boundary Ranch, 2 Guinn Rd, Kananaskis, Alberta. The family will be there to greet relatives and friends.
