Opal,
That’s just lovely.Thank you so much for taking the time to make it.
OpalCat - Thanks for putting this up. I was in shock, stunned beyond belief. Reading your page was wonderful. I laughed so hard rereading the gerbil story and really enjoyed the cybersex thread. As so many others, I didn’t really know Wally, but I have a feeling that he would like us to continue to get a big kick out of life and remember him for the good man he was. Again, thanks.
thank you Opal. Wally looks just like I would have thought Wally would.
Opal, what a wonderful thing for you to do. Thank you.
Ayesha
We miss you Wally
An appropriate way for us to remember Wally. Thank you, Opal, for doing this deed to honor him.
I composed this to make myself feel better.
Would it be OK if I added it to the memorial page?
WALLY IS…
More than amusing, he is a muse
His wit can fill you with joy
His wit can cut like a knife
His insufference of fools can cause gales of laughter
His patience for the kind can cause kindness to flourish
He is the barrel of laughs that supports the barrel rider
He is the quintessential funny man
He is the quintessential straight man
He is Abbott
He is Costello
He is a sage
He is the soul of our board
He is the tie that binds us
He is a status symbol
He is afraid of rodents
He is a cranky old man
He is a husband and a father
He is modest
He is lost…
…and so are we.
I’d like to add that to the tribute page (the second page)
I already posted this on 1 board so I will just post it again at 3FMB. Do with it what you would like, Opal. Or anyone for that matter.
Opal,
Thank you for those pages…I am sure that everyone here appreciates it!
Thought I would bump this up.

a page where you can post your memories of Wally, with some of Wally’s more favorite moments posted as well.
-
a page of Wally quotes and tributes to Wally.
-
a page of links to Wally threads (add one)

Wally sigs
I’m still looking for more pictures of Wally, if anyone has any.
Opal, thank you for creating that page, and so quickly. It really helped me to get through my sadness today.
You are a wonder.
Opal, bless you.
You are a poet and an artist.
And a damn fine human bein’.
Thanks for such a fine tribute to a wonderful man.
What my friend DaveW said, OC.
Just when I think Opalcat can’t impress me anymore…
That page is outstanding. Thank you.
I wrote this song to Wally a few weeks ago. It’s not much, but if you want to add it to the Tribute page, I’d be honored.
(To the theme from Flipper)
His name is Wally! Wally!
And he’s very verbal
and scared of gerbils
placed in his hands.
His name is Wally! Wally!
His one liners slay me
his daughter’s named Amy
He’s from the North Lands!
He’s got a cycle, cycle
that he liked to ride
until the P.O.S. died
on some dark path.
He’s a troll slayer, slayer
with plenty of guts
He’ll call you a Putz
so don’t earn his wrath!
Thank you, Opal.
Opal, what can I say? Awesome job.
Thanks hon!
