Dear Nicgorski Family, I just this minute heard of the passing of your Dad and my heart goes out to all of you. I have some of the best memories of my childhood associated with Wally. I will never, ever forget Wally setting up his projector in the basement, turning out the lights, and proceeding to scare our brains out with his monster movies. Enough to send us flying behind the big bass in the corner, that was twice our size back then. lol. The Wolfman is my favorite to this day because of Wally! Wally coming into the garage and getting jimmy geared up for the gokart. When most parents were yelling at us for this or that Wally would all of a sudden appear, have that sly grin on his face, and the fun started! Gokarts, mini-bikes, movies, bullfights on channel 20, sledding, ice cream, tearing up the basement. Will never forget it. When I was a little older, at my grandfather's funeral, he took me outside and explained the meaning of passing and why we grieve. That has stayed with me always. He was like a father to me back then and I've always loved him for that. David, Jimmy, Stephen...i think you were just a baby Billy...I know it's been a long, long time but I love you all and want you to celebrate the fact you guys had the Dad we all wish we could have had.....I know I did! I wish I would have known sooner to pay my respects but you all are in my thoughts and prayers always.
