  • Wally was special and great friend. I will miss him very much. I could depend on Wally at anytime to come to Oyate Tipi to help in the warehouse. He was special member of the Oyate Tipi family. He was hardworking and had a great sense of humor. We shared many laughs and many special moments with Wally. He always appeared to be tough but had a heart of gold for Oyate Tipi. I called him a diamond in the rough. I will miss you my TRUE GREAT FRIEND. - Posted by: Millie (Friend) on: Feb 28, 2015
