To the Cyz Family,
We are very sorry to hear of Wally's passing. He was kind enough to attend our Mom's wake in December and we talked about the Seeley Ave "porch club" and our memories of neighbors on Seeley.
Wally was a great neighbor who was always ready to help out when needed.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.

To the Cyz family, I offer you my sincerest condolances.

I was shocked and saddened upon hearing the news of Wally's passing. I last saw him on Dec. 27, (2006) and he looked great. He will be greatly missed by his fanily and friends. I also appreciate that he took over the treasurer's job at the Cicero Concertina Circle from me when I had to move out of state in August 2003. He was a tireless promoter of the concertina and Polish music, and, he was a friend to everyone. May he now enjoy his reward in Heaven.
