Hi everyone,
Walthers definately is a giant in the industry. From our family to theirs we pray all the best in this time of sorrow. Brian.
The home page http://walthers.com/ has a short announcement with a link to more information.

Rene, I suspect there may be a lot of us who don't know Mr. Walthers. Can you provide some info?
In the meantime of course my personal condolences to the family. It is a hard thing to go through but he is in no pain any more and, in a far far better place. Hanging on to that thought always conforted me during such times.....
I am sorry to hear about anyone passing away; i did not know the man or the company but i wish all his frends, business associates and rellies all the best.
