I have fond memories of Uncle Wally when we visited with Mum and Dad (Heni & Bill George) Unfortunately we only met at times of sadness in our later lives, but I used to look forward to those strong bear hugs and stories of his families' escapades. An extremely proud family man who everyone who met him, looked up to him. Have another whiskey old boy! RIP

Maata Road forever. Condolences to the Dudley family from the Richards family on the passing of Wally. I remember as a young fella I'd be shaking in my boots when this huge no nonsense chap was around, he even told Peter he was going to scrape out his new tattoo with a wire brush, classic.

My condolences to the Dudley families..my mum Betty Anderson & Gwen were on the Eltham Bowling Club committee.
When Gwen & Wally moved to Summerset NP, I often had many chats with them both.
When Gwen passed I would often call into Wally's villa for a chat before going home from my working day.
