Walter, Homer Jr.
Manitou Beach, Michigan
“Guess Who” Homer Dwight Walter, Jr., 70, passed away May 28, 2020. He was born on March 31, 1950, in Tecumseh, Michigan to Homer and Alice (Keith) Walter. Homer married Linda Kellk, on July 17, 1987 in Somerset, Michigan.
Homer loved his family and was a kind and patient man that would give you the shirt off his back. He was a very outgoing person, loving to watch or participate in sports, softball, baseball, golf, and bowling, attending several tournaments throughout the United States. Homer was a huge University of Michigan fan and enjoyed riding his Harley Davidson whenever possible. He loved to travel, camp and knew the name of every restaurant in Michigan, thanks to his phone apps that he constantly used. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
Homer will be missed by his wife Linda; his children, Danielle (Reuben) Bynum, Aaron (Sara) Christensen, Melissa (Chris) Chesney and Kyle Walter; his sisters, Judith McNally and Janet Brokaw; his grandchildren Caleb, Bryce, Keegan, and Gavin Chesney, Savannah, Aaron, Ezra, Ezekiel, Henry, and Rivka Christensen, Weston Wilson, Adrianna Laharrague; and Caleb Bynum; and one great grandchild Kailey along with many nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his parents, and brothers-in-law Ronald McNally and Kenneth Brokaw.
