Andrew, Wanda, Julianna, Steve, Evelyn and Alex.
We write with such sadness as we share your sorrow.
We offer you our most heartfelt sympathy in the loss of
your dad, son, brother, brother in law and Uncle.
May you be comforted in knowing he loved all of you, so very
much. May you be consoled in knowing that he too, was loved
by all of us. For “the souls of the righteous are in the hand
of God and no Torment will ever touch them. In the eyes of
the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was
thought to be a disaster, and their going from us to be their destruction;
but they are at peace.”
Wally, my earliest memories begin when you entered our family in 1971, you were just dating my sister Eva. I was only 13 years old. We immediately bonded with you and your family. You became another brother, and Julianna became another sister. You gave the best hugs and were always, so loving, happy, kind, generous and compassionate, so smart, friendly, honest and fun to be with. YOu were simply the Best! You were always ready to lend us a helping hand. Everyone who knew you, loved your free spirited personality. You were even the Best Man at our wedding! Anthony and I loved spending time together with you and Eva. After Andrew was born, he was yours and Eva’s little prince, and ours too! You were such a loving dad! Wally, we are so sad that you have left our earthly life, but you will never leave our thoughts, our words and our hearts. May God embrace you and receive you into His Heavenly Kingdom. May all your loved ones, your father, your grandparents, my parents, and friends, greet you at the Heavenly gates in celebration. May you see the face of God. We will always love you. Until we meet again....... Lena, Anthony & Valerie xoxo

So saddened to hear of the loss of a great old friend. So many memories, not the least of which is driving around in the Rambler Bus with the seats all folded down... He made it to Vancouver with Chevy, he and that lucky dog sure got around! What a guy, what a sweet, sweet friend.
My sincere sympathy to Wally's mom who I remember from Hill Garden. To his sister and her family, and of course, to Andrew, my deepest condolences.

Dear, Wanda and Family,
I was deeply saddened today to learn of the passing of Wally, my heart goes out to all of you in this time of mourning.
I hold very fond memories dating back in time some fifty years ago when Wally was helping his father construct our then home in Caledon.
Although over the passing years our path's seldom crossed, we came together when matters counted. I am forever grateful too the Paprocki family and extend my deepest condolences.
Love and prayers,
Brian and Family.

So sorry to hear the sad news about my dear friend Wally. We have been friends since public school and I have nothing but fond memories of all the good times we had, from ball hockey, football, sidewalk surfers to our band in high school, the quarry, concerts and lots of parties, (where he insisted on being the D.J.) “Tommy Tapes” was always upbeat talkative and cheerful, he and Chevy even drove up to the Yukon for a visit. I am deeply saddened by his passing, he was my friend for 60 years or so. All of my children met and really liked Wally to the point where they carried on phone conversations if I wasn’t there. He will be sorely missed by all whose lives he touched….Rest in peace dear friend

I was very saddened to here of Wally's passing. Although I have not seen Wally in many years I always remember the great fun times we shared in high school. The many laughs and friendship have always been entrenched in my mind and will always be. Wally was a great guy and will be surely missed. But not as much as he will be missed by his family and very close friends. To you I offer my sincere condolences during this sad time. May you all somehow find comfort in cherishing the wonderful memories Wally has left with you and all of us.

When I moved from Vancouver to Toronto in 1965 was when I met Wally, as I was put into the same class as him. He was one of the first people I met as "the new guy". Wally was always a great guy with a great sense if humour. The we're many years when he lived in the US that I never saw him. When he returned to Canada it was like he had never left. I lived back to Vancouver and on his road trip to BC the Yukon and the US he came and stayed with me for a few days. We were young again remembering "the good times" After his return to the east I was the recipient of many an interesting late night phone call. It was always a pleasure to hear his voice. I was so shocked to hear the sad news and will miss his quick smile and heading his voice. My Dad once told me if you get to the end of your life and can count your true friends on one hand you are very lucky. Wally is on my one Hand a true friend. I will miss him dearly.

Wally was one of the reasons why growing up on Hill Garden Road was so special. He always had great advice, which he would give with a huge smile and a twinkle in his eyes. Thank you for all your wisdom and laughter! You will always be fondly remembered. My condolences to Mrs. Paprocki, Julianna and family.
