Happy Belated Birthday, Walter. I was camping this weekend and missed it! And that's a touching story of your friend. My condolences to you, along with wishes for a happy day and happy memories.

Hey Walter... I wasn't sure it was really your birthday ;) as I missed it and yours is mysteriously absent from your profile :( ... but since so many have chimed in...

:diver: :diver: ;)

and I know you are happy to have been able to fulfill a request from your buddy, even if sad that it will be your last time to enter the water together. Just think though... he's always diving and waiting for you to show up and spend some of your dive with him!

Many happy returns, Walter, and God bless!

:diver: Buddy. Hope you have a wonderful day on this special day of yours.

See ya in 2 weeks.

Happy Birthday Walter!

Thanks for sharing your story, but given what I read into it, that is a friend that will always be there for you when you are in need. Your generous deed will never be forgotten and I have a feeling it will returned to you by him when the need arises. GOD BLESS!!!

My birthday was past when I saw you and Tom. You can still send me a check (j/k). It was great diving with you both on Sunday.
