___ PCN FLIGHT WEST is sponsored by the Pilot Communication Network and is a service of the PCN provided for the Delta Pilot Retired family of pilot groups. Flight West was started and is maintained to accomplish two main goals. After we become aware of a colleague who has Flown West, 1. We aim to produce a “timely” notice sent to our community that allows for support and interaction from our group toward the grieving family of our friend and colleague. 2. Then, we aim to “archive” that notice on our Flown West Blogspot as a lasting accessible place of Dignity and Honor of our colleague for family legacy and posterity. Contributor contact info is generally removed before posting (unless requested otherwise).

Dear Friends and Family

Hap passed away last night in his sleep. He had been in so much pain for so long.
His leukemia had progressed into a very aggressive T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.
He has been on Hospice for seven weeks and has outlived all prognosis.

Tim and Susie (his son and daughter) are with me and that has been a big help.
Hap said he did not want a funeral, only a grave-side service with family there.
His wish was that any memorial would be a donation to the Leukemia and Lymphoma
Society. (

I will be staying here until sometime next week. I need to get home, but first,
I need to get some rest.

Thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers.
He is now at peace.

 Carol,
Julian asked me to send additional information to you regarding the passing of Harold B. (Hap) Walter.  I think that John Finley has reached out, and those who knew Hap are welcome to contact either of us as appropriate; most will know John.
Hap passed away on the evening of Thursday, 9/19 from complications of Leukemia.  He will be remembered respectfully at a small, private service in Stuart, FL and over the coming weeks with raucous toasts involving lies and gross exaggerations of his prowess in aviation.  He asked that no flowers be sent, but that donations be made instead to further research and help others in the future:  http://lls.org
Please feel free to contact me as needed at this e-mail address.
Very Best Regards,
(Hap's son)
