Walter Marut’s style of generosity made a huge difference in many lives, as he tirelessly gave of himself. Whenever Walt sensed that someone needed help, he wouldn’t wait for a request - he’d offer to provide whatever was needed – and always found a excuse for not wanting to be compensated. My folks & I were lucky enough to live a few houses up from Walt. As they aged, he made it His duty take them shopping, bring them their newspaper & mail, shovel their driveway, and patiently look in on them daily. They were but one of many neighbors that he cared for. He now joins those whose lives he’s touched, and whose burdens he’s lifted. Walt, for those of us who remain, we are eternally grateful to have had the privilege to have known and loved you. Peter
