Our family sends our condolences to Wally’s children Brian, Stephen and Dawn, and the extended Molen family. Wally (younger brother to my Mom) was one of my beloved Uncles, and I recall back to the early sixties when my family lived in Brooklyn downstairs from Grandpa, Nana, and my spirited twenty something Uncles. We young kids loved to tussle and laugh with these fine young men, and my brother Kevin and I had the good fortune to serve as Altar Boys at Wally’s wedding to the stunning Shirley. Though we dropped the bells and tripped on the altar steps to some laughter, Wally praised our work and gave the biggest tip. We all got to see his ever growing Love for Shirley and his children when we visited his NJ pool and campus that we referred to as Wally World. Sadly, we mourned the passing of Shirley in 1989. Later, married and living with my children Rochester NY, we had the pleasure of a visit from Wally and his wife Pauline who had grown up in our area. Lots of great memories of a fine man and his loved family.

Wally and I met in the spring of 1980. Wally and Shirley lived diagonally behind our house. We had moved into the neighborhood a few months before and had not met any neighbors. I had some firewood that I needed to split so I rented a log splitter from a local rental company. Wally heard the roar of the log splitters engine and walked over to introduce himself. He asked me if we could split the cost of the machine rental as he also had firewood to split. As we were working, two other neighbors, Marc and David, walked over and also asked to be included on the machine rental as they also had firewood to split. So, we spent the day rolling the machine from yard to yard splitting firewood. It was an exhausting but terrific afternoon. Shirley and my wife became friends and our children were constant companions. Life was simple. Life was good. Wally was a gentleman, loving father and husband, great neighbor and great friend.
