In Loving Memory: Walter T Brown

Today in Hillsdale, New Jersey, friends, family, and many others celebrate the remarkable life of Walter T Brown, Erika's father, and Liam and Leila's grandfather. Liam's (William Walter Blackshaw-Brown) middle name is in Walter's honor. There is much sadness here at the home in which Erika grew up with Walter, mother beverly, and sister Kara. But there is also happiness and thanks that Walter lived a great life, rich with love...and adventure....and so much more. In the last three years, he saw the birth of four grandchildren, including Dos Bebes. We will miss him dearly, and his character and values and compassion -- his love for the Adirondacks and his passion for understanding less understood people and cultures -- will always remain part of us.
