Walt died Oct. 24, 2004, from complications of Hodgkin's disease and multiple myeloma.
He prepared for Princeton at Mamaroneck High School in Larchmont, N.Y. At Princeton, he majored in mechanical engineering, joined Cloister, and was active in the radio station, theater, and choral groups. After graduation, he worked as a design engineer at Union Carbide Corp. in Bound Brook, N.J.
Walt subsequently developed his own construction business, and in 1976 became an instructor in engineering at Adirondack Community College in Queensbury, N.Y., where he taught until his retirement in 1993. He remained an ardent Tiger fan and attended almost all major reunions.
The class extends its condolences to Walt's wife, Mary Jane, and their children, Walter, William, and Jeanne, and three grandsons.
