I had the opportunity to get to know "Wally" aka., Moe and Babe as he called everyone, when i was a student in DesMoines and he worked at Amoco. He was a kind friend. I will miss him.

So sorry to hear about Wally. He was the only person that could call women 'BABES' and get away with it! All of his old Amoco/Associates/CITI friends will miss him.

My deepest condolences. When Wally worked in Des Moines, he,I, and others took numerous fishing trips up to Canada. His humor and good nature always made some of these trips enjoyable. He will be missed.

Dear Wrona Family,

Reading through todays obituaries, came across Wrona name and recognized as being a nephew of Andy and Stella. Carl (a nephew of Sophies) remembers going to BlackHawk games with Wally when he was younger. Please accept our heartfelt condolences. You and family are in our prayers.
