grandpa wally 1914-2010

this post is in honor of my grandpa wally (my dad's dad.)
though he lived across the country in new york and i didn't get to see him often, i will still miss him and it is good to know he is with the lord in heaven.
i am unable to make it back east for the funeral, but we are remembering him here in san diego. there are many things i loved about my grandpa- from him often wearing a bow tie, to the inspiration he was praying for all of us by name everyday and continuing to memorizing scripture at the age of 95, to the simple fact that his name was "wally," (one of the many waldens in our family, including oliver walden.)
thank you grandpa for all your prayers:)
