It is with a very heavy heart that I'm posting to let our community know that Host Walt has passed away.  I've worked with Walt to monitor the Celebrity boards here on Cruise Critic for nearly 20 years.  He was such a good caretaker of our Cruise Critic community.  He and his wife loved to cruise, flowers and gardening and tennis (Roger Federer in particular).  

 

It seems surreal at the moment.  I truly enjoyed sharing the duties of "host" with Walt over the years.  He was a gentleman and a friend.  We will miss him greatly.  

Please post a link to obituary if you can...thanks...

Thank you Anne for letting us know.

 

May He Rest In Peace.

Walt is now "on the high seas"...and sailing "uncharted waters"...which I hope for all of us!! 

 

He was such a CC "main-stay"...especially on the X board...I'll miss him...but I'm sure his "ship-mates" will miss him more!! 

 

Let's hope that we meet him...on the other side of the ocean!!! LuAnn
