Walter Kint was the person who would always meet you with a smile. He loved a joke, Louie Lamour novels, had a sweet tooth, enjoyed the outdoors, bbq and laughing with friends and family. But most of all he loved animals, especially his dog Cassie and his cat Tori. He could build and/or repair anything and even in his final days he was telling us how he would reconstruct the room at his nursing facility.
The family would like to send a special thank you to Gracie Good and the staff at Timberwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center for all the special care and kindness they extended to Walter and his family during the month that he stayed there. They made Walter's journey an easier one. In lieu of flowers please make a donation in honor of Walter to Timberwood, 4001 N Hwy 59, Livingston, TX 77351.
