Walter

George Florian Walter, 82, of Jefferson Township, Butler County, died Sunday, Sept. 17, 2023, after declining dialysis for kidney failure.

A religious pilgrim, Walter spent much of his life walking around the world as an eye-catching witness for Christianity. When people asked about his destination or purpose, Walter told them he was en route to heaven.

George was the beloved son of the late Florian and Mary Rita Walter; brother of Thomas Walter (Christine) and the late Paul Walter; and uncle of Andrew T. Walter (Kelly), Michael P. Walter, Matthew R. Walter (Alison), Pamela J. Walter and Allison C. Hirsch (Matthew). He is also survived by eight great-nieces and great-nephews.
