I'm so sorry Dana, R.W., Phillip, and Heather. Two weeks ago our lives were rolling along just fine, but God had another plan. And what a beautiful plan it must be. Lots of old memories rolling around in my head. Your mom and dad were so sweet to me last weekend. It was so good to see them. Can't wait to hug dad and uncle Walton and aunt Serelda again one day. Our God is an amazing God, who gives us strength and comfort through these hard times.
Love all of you,
Natalie

My heart and my prayers go out to the family of Walton and Serelda. I had the blessing of being able to attend Lamar Baptist Church with them. They were such wonderful people who truly loved the Lord. They will be missed by all.

Praying for peace, comfort, and joy during this difficult time. Walton & Seralda were a precious couple who loved God. We had the pleasure of attending church with them at Crow Mountain Baptist. They were full of Godly wisdom and love. We loved hearing stories about their children & grandchildren. They spoiled my boys as if they were their own grandchildren. Each time we see our Dutch oven cookware,we will think of Walton & how he would cook for his family when they went camping & the advice he gave regarding cooking. When poppyseed chicken is made I will think of Seralda as she shared this meal with us in our home one evening. We are heartbroken but rejoicing that they are in heaven together.

My heart is broken for the family of Walton and Serelda. I pray for their 4 beautiful children and spouses and Grandchildren. I know there is a spot in your hearts that will always be empty.
I pray for Mr. Phillips, Sandra, Pam and Cindy and their families too. I know this is hard on you and you will need to lean on the Lord. I know you will always miss them both.
I thank God that I knew Serelda for these many years and that we were in touch this last couple of years. I know that she is an angel in heaven and she is happy to be with Walton and her Mother.
God bless you all.

I just can't believe this all has happened. First losing cousin Marvin last week and then his brother Walton and wife Serelda this week is just more than I can bear.
I remember so well the three of us boys growing up, going fishing and spinning stories. Hard to believe you are all gone.

I didn't have the pleasure of meeting your father, Walton, but the fact that he loved your mother speaks volumes for him. May you be blessed with peace in your hearts knowing how very precious they were together here on earth and, now, in heaven.
