To know him, was to love him. He would lend a helping hand any way he could. He was always a person full of jokes. But most of all, he was the realest person you would ever meet. He didn’t meet to many strangers. He was just who he was, Walt Jr. Daniels, and any other nickname his friends gave him. Walt was a Graduate of Headland High School. He enjoyed attending his church, Little Rocky Mount Baptist Church.
