Condolences

Walter was one of favourite teachers at MFDHS and just a super guy. I remember visiting him many years later at his home and very much enjoyed the visit. RIP Walter and my thoughts to this family.

As a visiting volunteer at Saugeen Valley Nursing Centre it was my privilege to meet Walter Dukes. I enjoyed spending time with him very much. He was a gentle man and will be missed at SVNC. My sincere condolences to the Dukes family.

I'm very sorry to hear of Walter's passing. I remember him well when I was a young legionnaire. The last time I was in Mt Forest I stopped in to see Walter at the nursing home, and although he didn't say much, he still had that mischievous grin. He was a very proud legion member and will be missed. We will remember them. Patty Sargent-Gibson District C Commander
