There he would extend his arms around his view of Dayton, imagine he was holding it in his hands, and pray that the people in it would know the love of God by accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior. It is no wonder people who knew Walter felt him to be kind and joyful, even in difficult circumstances. Walter's prayer for Dayton...
