Walter was born at the family home at 307 S. Fifth Street, Deepwater, Missouri on July 8, 1928. Mr. Brown served in the U.S. Army, and as a young man worked at Hurley Lumber Co. in Deepwater. He enjoyed doing odd jobs around his family's home and was interested in plumbing and electrical repairs. He laid tile, added an indoor bathroom, built closets, and hung wallpaper throughout the home. His exterior paint jobs always included a nephew or niece, and unexpectant faces of children were sometimes brushed with paint. Upon leaving the service, he went to work for AT&T in Kansas City for the rest of his career and retired to his mother's home in Deepwater where he resided until his death.
He was preceded in death by his father on May 29, 1962; his mother on December 18, 1989; two infant sisters, Lovell and Ivonne; one sixteen year old brother, Neal, in 1935; three older sisters, Agnes, Opal, and Nona Mae; and one great-granddaugter, Kristen Rene Thomas.
Survivors include one son, Ronnie (Barbara) Dines of Lamar, Missouri; 3 grandchildren, Kimberly Rene Balthrope of Appleton City, Missouri, Amy I. (Eric) Nold of Montrose, Missouri, and Ronnie C. (Amanda) Dines of Sheldon, Missouri; 7 great-grandsons, 2 great-granddaughters, one great great-granddaughter, Finley DeLyte Nold, as well as one more great great-grandchild on the way.
