Paul Walter

Paul C. Walter, 76, of Kittanning passed away on Saturday, Oct. 5, 2019, at his home surrounded by his loving family.

He was born March 13, 1943, in Warren, Ohio, to Paul M. and H. Pearl (Hankey) Walter.

Paul was raised in Templeton and graduated from Dayton High School in 1961. He also graduated from Allegheny Technical School in Pittsburgh.

He retired from Magnetics Inc., in Butler, with 33 years of service.

He was a member of the Armstrong County Mounted Posse and participated in the Centennial Pony Express Ride.

Paul is survived by his wife, Judith. They enjoyed 55 years of marriage, in which they traveled, played cards with friends and hosted many events at the log home that Paul and his family built. He is also survived by his three children who inherited Paul’s unique sense of humor, love of ragged outdoor wear, duct tape and home improvement. Through it all, Paul was very supportive of Judy’s odd work hours and her fundraising activities.

Paul’s favorite sports are whatever his children or grandchildren are participating in, whether it is baseball, horseback riding or most recently Armstrong Arrows Hockey. He has enjoyed many hunting and fishing trips with his family and friends.

Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Judith A. (White) Walter; one son, Mark Walter, and his fiancé, Amy Ward, of Tarentum; two daughters, Paula Walter and her companion, Dan, of Kittanning, and Kelly Quinnell and her husband, Curt, of Kittanning; grandchildren, Cory and Zane Walter, and Lance Quinnell; two brothers, Harold Walter and his wife, Rose, of Templeton and John A. Walter and his wife, Donna, of Medina, Ohio; and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and his sister, Eleanor M. Walter, who passed away on May 13, 2016.
