To the family of Walter Hopkins:<br /> <br /> I was saddened to hear the news of Walt\'s passing. His unassuming nature and incredible talent to fix anything will be missed by many. Walt\'s contributions to JCC with the generous use of his equipment and his ability to keep equipment going long after its useful life will be irreplaceable. I highly doubt he was aware of how appreciative all of us were of him, and hopefully all of you find solace in knowing how important he was to JCC and its members. I will forever miss seeing him out there working on his many projects and our small talks to catch up. I will miss you Walt, you were one of a kind.
