I just woke up 7/19/2023 and thought of who I knew had birthday's today. I thought of Wally Chodacki, as a young person at my grandparent's property every summer by the fairgrounds, we always visited my grandmother's relatives and Virginia & Wally were related. We always had so much fun, especially with Wally, his sense of humor was phenomenal. I searched his name and his obituary pulled up. Sad to learn he's passed away, but at 90 was at home with family. I send David and Patty warm wishes, especially, with this message. Your parents & grandparents were all just wonderful people. I am grateful to have gotten to know them growing up. My mom, Mabel Ballas (Schrage) passed away August 17, 2010. When mom's pass, the history of friends, the "glue" of many family's fades. I will always appreciate the memories of the Chodacki home. God bless you all.

My late husband, Mark, visited with Wally on different occasions. Mark always remarked on what a nice man Wally was. Rest in peace Wally.
