Lonnie Feldman wrote a sympathy message

“So sorry to hear of Waldo's passing away. Waldo was a great guy whom I have know since in the 1940s. He helped my dad on the farm at Polk City one summer when dad was sick. He was a cousin of my bother's wife Ginny so he was like family. Great memories of Waldo visiting mom & dad later in life. May God be with Deloris and family in the coming days giving them peace and comfort. Lonnie & Anne Feldman”
