In his early days he enjoyed basketball, fishing and taxidermy work. He was a ‘cowboy by heart' in the fact that he liked Western clothing, music and rodeos. George and Wally hardly missed a rodeo, and at the same time they liked to explore museums around the state. Neither George nor Wally married, so they became best friends and companions. When George went into the Havre Lutheran Home about 3 years ago, Wally's dedication continued in that he made the trip from Rudyard to Havre on a daily basis to visit with George. As a hobby Wally enjoyed collecting, cutting, polishing and setting semi-precious stones. He loved to read and had an excellent memory. He could best be described by those who knew him as simply a kind and humble man Survivors include one brother, George of Havre; I sister, Lydia Langel of Rudyard: and numerous nephews and nieces.
