I’ve got so many cherished memories spending time with everyone at Arkwright Crt. Uncle Walter, your kindness & charm were disarming. These qualities along with your hospitable nature made the Perumal household a second home to many.
At the moment words can’t express the heartache, but I’m comforted by all the fond memories I have of you. Although the sadness will ease, the joy & happiness you spread will never fade.
Thank you for everything Uncle Walter. We will remember & love you always. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
To my darling uncle, You will always be loved & remembered by my family. Thank you for always watching out for me. Miss you already. Love & May God embrace you into his loving arms. Rest In Peace. Salome & Tyronne
It was a beautiful service and we are greatful that we were were able to be a part of it.Walter will be missed by everyone who knew him. May his soul rest in peace.
A beautiful Service and Walter would have been smiling and would have been so proud of his boys who spoke so lovingly of their dad.
We are so grateful to be part of the Service online and I am sure he would have felt the love from all at the Chapel and online to give him a beautiful send off.
Until we meet again Walter be a rest and know you will be in our hearts for eternity ❤️
Dear Cordelia and your precious family,
We stand with you at this very difficult time on the passing of your SPECIAL LOVED ONE, Walter. I did not have the privilege of knowing him as you have done so intimately over the years, but from what I have just read above, he is loved and respected as a VERY UNIQUE CREATION OF GOD!!
Be assured of our continued love, prayers and support as you face the uncertainties of tomorrow. But may you find in JESUS the peace and strength only He can give you. He is the Resurrection and the Life.
May you live with the cherished memories of the good times you have shared together as a family, and derive strength from the Lord, just as Walter did to face life and death with hope and confidence.
May He rest safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o’er shadowed, sweetly and safely may He rest!

Dear Cordelia, Colin, Wendell, Keith and your families
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you through this difficult time.
It was a privilege to be able to watch the beautiful and warm service that was held for Walter.
Rest in peace Walter. May you be born to immortality.
It was a fitting farewell for an absolute gentleman. Walter was a genuine and caring friend, whose smile always lit up a room. Walter, you are now gone from our sight but will always live on in our hearts. We will cherish the beautiful memories and good times we had together. Till we meet again…. Rest in peace dear Walter.
Dear Cordi, even though your grief is unbearable, Walter will always be watching over you and the family. Be comforted with all the beautiful memories you have as a loving family.
What a beautiful service. Cannot agree more with the words that were spoken. First met Walter when my late brother Tiny was in hospital many years ago. Since then, whenever Tiny was in and out of hospital Walter was always there right till the end, a loyal friend. Walter worked tirelessly to uplift the standard of Walawwa even during his illness. Nothing was too hard for him. A true gentleman to the end. I’m sure Tiny will be there to welcome him with open arms. Rest in peace Walter
With sadness and a heavy heart we said our final goodbye to a very dear friend who will be looking down and smiling at his beautiful family and loving wife Cordelia. We can rejoice with them knowing well that he is in the arms of his creator in peace . We will miss you Walter always and remember you fondly
Our deepest sympathy to you and the family Cordelia.
That was a beautiful send off for the fine gentleman that Walter was.
May God grant you the strength you need at this time Cordi and may Walter’s soul Rest In Peace.
Love and God Bless.

Dear Cordelia, Please accept my sympathies for you and your family. Although it is many years since we worked together, I can recall the good times and help you gave me.

Dear Cordi, Col, Wendell, Keith and family, my heartfelt condolences to you all. Some people come into our lives, leave footprints in our hearts, and we are never the same afterwards. When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure and Walter’s will never fade because of the impact he had on everyone he met. I will never forget the wonderful times we had and our last trip to Cairns, just Walter, Cordi and me. I am indeed honoured and blessed to have known him. Grief is the price we pay for love and may our loving memories of Walter carry us through these sad times. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and let perpetual light shine on him. RIP my dear friend till we meet again.
Dear Aunty C, Colin, Wendell, Keith, Rachel, Michelle, Kylie, Mackenzie, Dominique, Cohen, Aria and Niana,
There are no words to describe the tremendous loss that you feel. That we all feel, having to say goodbye to Uncle Wally.
I feel so very lucky to have had him as my uncle and to know him. He touched so many with his warmth, kindness and love. Nothing was ever too much trouble, I always knew I could count on him if I needed anything at all.
Gone now, but always loved and never forgotten.
We look forward to celebrating this wonderful man and saying goodbye properly when the time comes, hopefully soon.
All of our love and hugs
Mel, Ken and Keilan

He was a lovely boy and you were the ideal partner for him. Both of you
were chosen by God to be one,

accept at the moment.

“The Lord bless and keep you, the Lord make His face to shine upon you,
and be gracious to you; The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace”

Our heartfelt sympathies go out to you, Cordelia, and your lovely family. We last met Walter having dinner at Walawwa last year, still working away through his illness. One of the nicest gentleman we’ve met and one I used to love teasing. He took it all in good spirits. May all the wonderful memories (we shared some of them, viewing his beautiful funeral service online) sustain you all in your journeys through life. With love,
Alan and Ramona de Niese

Dear Cordelia and family. Please accept my heartfelt sympathies. It is a great pain and sorrow to lose your soul mate, and we have seen the loving bond between the two of you. May Walter’s soul rest in peace.
Thank You for giving me the opportunity to pay my last respects to Walter, at least, virtually, if not physically, which I would normally have done if not for the COVID restrictions.
I have always remembered Walter in my daily prayers right through his battle with cancer and have offered up my daily online Masses & Communions for the repose of his soul since his passing.
I liked and respected Walter because I always found him to be a humble, unassuming man, with no loud, “big talk” and “show off” ways. Qualities which I have always admired in people. I know how much he gave up for the betterment of his family/children, when he moved to Australia, after having such a good, prestigious job in Sri Lanka and how hard working he was to the end.
Take comfort in the knowledge that all of you, as a family, got to spend time together to the end and that he died, at peace, in his own home, surrounded by his family AND NOT A LONELY, SAD DEATH IN A HOSPITAL SOMEWHERE, especially with these COVID health issues and restrictions.
May you Rest In Peace mate – your ethic and approach to life will never be forgotten. Beautiful heart and soul and hearing all those words today remind us all again of how much of a beautiful person you are and always will be “Treat your true friends like family” will always stay I’m my memory
Deepest condolences to you all
Such a beautiful family and thank you for letting us all be apart of today
To Cordelia, Col, Wendell, Keith and families. What a beautiful tribute to a great man. Our deepest Condolences to you all.

We will always be there for you Cordie if you need us. Love and hugs – Michael and Suzie Prins xxxx

Your husband / father / father in law / Grandfather was a truly great man and his loss leaves the world a lesser place.
His warmth and legacy will remain forever though in the leadership he showed throughout his remarkable life and the quality of people that he was able to raise, guide and inspire. His love and pride in his family had no limits and with great reason.
Walter will be forever missed but equally forever cherished. We look forward to toasting his life in the right way when time permits.

Dear Aunty Cordelia, Colin, Wendell, Keith and family,
We are so honoured to have known Uncle Walter. He was so generous, with his time and always offering a helping hand. To helping setting up numerous important birthdays, to helping run the bar to even helping nan move, there was no situation too large where he wouldn’t offer a helping hand.
It was a pleasure and an absolute honour that he could share in our wedding day earlier this year. The picture of that infectious smile will live with us forever. We will miss the kind, loving and beautiful soul he was. RIP Uncle Walter
Passing on our sincere condolences to Cordelia, the 3 boys and their families on the sad loss of Walter.

Please accept our heartfelt condolences. He was a great guy. As I wrote (SMS) to him earlier he was the ‘shining light ‘ in his batch at the Hotel School . He brought a lot of credit to his alma mater and the Hotel School. Sadly ,I was away from Sri Lanka far too long . Even to know that he managed the famous Browns Beach Hotel where I started my career in 1970 as a receptionist is great. He never had enemies at School and failed to smile whenever we met him. Top sportsman and a top bloke.
Rest in Peace , dear Walter
To dearest aunty Cordelia and the rest of the family . It was such a beautiful service. We will miss uncle Walter ,
Aunty Cordelia we can’t wait to see you again so we can give you a big hug and kiss.

Dear Cordelia, My deepest sympathy to you and the family. May Our Blessed Mother guide you during this difficult time and may Walter’s beautiful soul Rest in Peace.
A beautiful man taken too soon.
You were always a warm, caring man whom I have known since I was a young boy, through our Fathers love of cricket.
I still recall the day you made a hundred at Silverton, after having to leave the ground with cramps.
It was unbelievable.
To grow up and become great friends with your three sons, who you were so proud of has been an honor.
You always gave your time, and were more than happy to share a whiskey and a chat.
My love and best wishes to Cordelia and family.
RIP Walter x

With Deepest Sympathies to you Cordelia, Colin, Wendell, Keith and your families. We have lost a true friend and a gentleman. Rest in Peace my Friend. You will always be remembered.
Myles & Jothi
Walter: You could never say NO, you were ever willing to help anybody and not expect anything in return. You have left us a huge void by your early return to the place that God had reserved for you where the joys never end and you are pain free. Your place amongst the Family and Friends will never be filled. We do have lots of fond memories of the many trips, fun filled get-togethers and your smile which we will cherish and hold onto.
To Cordelia, Colin, Wendell & Keith + Families: We know you are inconsolable. May time ease the pain in your hearts. We offer our heartfelt sympathies at this sad time. Our regret is the inability to be there as we bring Walter’s worldly innings to a close. In true sporting fashion he played by the rule book and straight bat.
Please accept our deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences during this extremely sad time. We will never forget the wonderful memories especially during our Choir days. What camaraderie we shared. Every year Christmas will bring a flood of memories which we will all hold dear. Cordelia Walter always came across as a Gentleman to his fingertips and we are so glad to have shared his friendship even if it was for such a short time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. RIP Walter. May the Angels sing you to your eternal home. Neil and Annmarie Peiris
Walter may have gone to be with the angels but he sure has left a lasting impression on all those who were fortunate enough to have known this real gentleman. RIP forever Walter !!
Cordi and family, Wishing you hope in the midst of sorrow, Comfort in the midst of pain.
Our heartfelt sympathies. Lozaine and Amila

What a truly wonderful and sincere best friend have I lost. Words are just too simple to express my grief, my sorrow. Such a gentleman so caring so jovial and so friendly and so trustworthy. I will miss you heaps Walter. I cannot express my sadness from so far away for you brother. You were so much loved by Petsy, Chris Julie and me. You were so much to us.

With loads of tears and a sad heart I say to you dearest Walter Rest In Peace. We all love you very much and thank you sincerely for being our best friend. Tony Pereira

Very much the social butterfly who was also a great host. May the pain that you feel be eased by reflecting on so many good memories and knowing that he suffers no more.
May his soul Rest In Peace.
Love and hugs, Rosy, Michael, Chris and Daniel.
It was a pleasure knowing Walter, always a gentleman. Memories of Walter at the Walawwa, cricket playing days and seeing him and Cordelia at the many dances we attended will bring back such happy times. You will be sadly missed….deepest sympathies to Cordelia, his children and extended families. May he Rest In Peace.
R.I.P Walter our dear friend, I may have not know you as long as Desmond has, for the short time that I did, you were a beautiful soul.
I hope it comforts you Cordelia to know that your grief is shared by all of us who knew Walter. He was a wonderful friend and he will be sorely missed”.
Hi Cordi,
Walter was such a gentle soul. You could not ask for a more patient, quiet spoken person. I recall the many times he would quietly approach me at Wallawwa and make his presence felt with a soft line ( often a smart arse remark ) that always had me turning around to see his smiling face.
I’m so sorry. My parents send their sympathies as well; they both speak very highly of him.
Our prayers are with you and your family.
We must meet up sometime. Until then, take care and may god bless you all.
Treherne
“What a friend we have in JESUS are sins and grieves to bear what a privilege to carry everything to GOD in prayer”. Matthew Ch5 Verse4 “Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted”.

To Dearest Cordelia,Colin, Wendell, Keith and families,
Our deepest Sympathies on the passing of your Husband, and Father, he will be greatly missed at the Old Aloysian Meetings, and weekends away where we had memories since 1985, the banter, the laughter and the comradeship will never be erased from our minds, he was that sort of Man.i only had a brief recollection of him in college in the 1960’s.
Stay strong Cordi and I am sure he will walk with you thru the rest of your life.
farewell my friend, may you rest in peace.
God bless .Jerome and Charmaine

I’ve got so many cherished memories spending time with everyone at Arkwright Crt. Uncle Walter, your kindness & charm were disarming. These qualities along with your hospitable nature made the Perumal household a second home to many.
At the moment words can’t express the heartache, but I’m comforted by all the fond memories I have of you. Although the sadness will ease, the joy & happiness you spread will never fade.
Thank you for everything Uncle Walter. We will remember & love you always. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
To my darling uncle, You will always be loved & remembered by my family. Thank you for always watching out for me. Miss you already. Love & May God embrace you into his loving arms. Rest In Peace. Salome & Tyronne

It was a beautiful service and we are greatful that we were were able to be a part of it.Walter will be missed by everyone who knew him. May his soul rest in peace.
A beautiful Service and Walter would have been smiling and would have been so proud of his boys who spoke so lovingly of their dad.
We are so grateful to be part of the Service online and I am sure he would have felt the love from all at the Chapel and online to give him a beautiful send off.
Until we meet again Walter be a rest and know you will be in our hearts for eternity ❤️
Dear Cordelia and your precious family,
We stand with you at this very difficult time on the passing of your SPECIAL LOVED ONE, Walter. I did not have the privilege of knowing him as you have done so intimately over the years, but from what I have just read above, he is loved and respected as a VERY UNIQUE CREATION OF GOD!!
Be assured of our continued love, prayers and support as you face the uncertainties of tomorrow. But may you find in JESUS the peace and strength only He can give you. He is the Resurrection and the Life.
May you live with the cherished memories of the good times you have shared together as a family, and derive strength from the Lord, just as Walter did to face life and death with hope and confidence.
May He rest safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o’er shadowed, sweetly and safely may He rest!
Pastor Crosbie and Yvonne de Kretser

Malcolm & Genny Schokman say :
It was a fitting farewell for an absolute gentleman. Walter was a genuine and caring friend, whose smile always lit up a room. Walter, you are now gone from our sight but will always live on in our hearts. We will cherish the beautiful memories and good times we had together. Till we meet again…. Rest in peace dear Walter.
Dear Cordi, even though your grief is unbearable, Walter will always be watching over you and the family. Be comforted with all the beautiful memories you have as a loving family.
What a beautiful service. Cannot agree more with the words that were spoken. First met Walter when my late brother Tiny was in hospital many years ago. Since then, whenever Tiny was in and out of hospital Walter was always there right till the end, a loyal friend. Walter worked tirelessly to uplift the standard of Walawwa even during his illness. Nothing was too hard for him. A true gentleman to the end. I’m sure Tiny will be there to welcome him with open arms. Rest in peace Walter

There are no words to describe the tremendous loss that you feel. That we all feel, having to say goodbye to Uncle Wally.
I feel so very lucky to have had him as my uncle and to know him. He touched so many with his warmth, kindness and love. Nothing was ever too much trouble, I always knew I could count on him if I needed anything at all.
Gone now, but always loved and never forgotten.
We look forward to celebrating this wonderful man and saying goodbye properly when the time comes, hopefully soon.
All of our love and hugs
Mel, Ken and Keilan

Marie Cramer
Dear Cordelia and family. Please accept my heartfelt sympathies. It is a great pain and sorrow to lose your soul mate, and we have seen the loving bond between the two of you. May Walter’s soul rest in peace.
Our Deepest condolences to all the family. RIP Walter.
Dear Cordelia, Colin, Wendell and Keith
Thank You for giving me the opportunity to pay my last respects to Walter, at least, virtually, if not physically, which I would normally have done if not for the COVID restrictions.
I have always remembered Walter in my daily prayers right through his battle with cancer and have offered up my daily online Masses & Communions for the repose of his soul since his passing.
I liked and respected Walter because I always found him to be a humble, unassuming man, with no loud, “big talk” and “show off” ways. Qualities which I have always admired in people. I know how much he gave up for the betterment of his family/children, when he moved to Australia, after having such a good, prestigious job in Sri Lanka and how hard working he was to the end.
Take comfort in the knowledge that all of you, as a family, got to spend time together to the end and that he died, at peace, in his own home, surrounded by his family AND NOT A LONELY, SAD DEATH IN A HOSPITAL SOMEWHERE, especially with these COVID health issues and restrictions.
My love and prayers are with you all.
REST IN PEACE, WALTER.
May you Rest In Peace mate – your ethic and approach to life will never be forgotten. Beautiful heart and soul and hearing all those words today remind us all again of how much of a beautiful person you are and always will be “Treat your true friends like family” will always stay I’m my memory
Deepest condolences to you all
Such a beautiful family and thank you for letting us all be apart of today

Dear Aunty Cordelia, Colin, Wendell, Keith and family,
We are so honoured to have known Uncle Walter. He was so generous, with his time and always offering a helping hand. To helping setting up numerous important birthdays, to helping run the bar to even helping nan move, there was no situation too large where he wouldn’t offer a helping hand.
It was a pleasure and an absolute honour that he could share in our wedding day earlier this year. The picture of that infectious smile will live with us forever. We will miss the kind, loving and beautiful soul he was. RIP Uncle Walter

Dear Cordelia,
Please accept our heartfelt condolences. He was a great guy. As I wrote (SMS) to him earlier he was the ‘shining light ‘ in his batch at the Hotel School . He brought a lot of credit to his alma mater and the Hotel School. Sadly ,I was away from Sri Lanka far too long . Even to know that he managed the famous Browns Beach Hotel where I started my career in 1970 as a receptionist is great. He never had enemies at School and failed to smile whenever we met him. Top sportsman and a top bloke.
Rest in Peace , dear Walter
Sam n Patty ( Sydney)
Correction: never failed to smile

You were always a warm, caring man whom I have known since I was a young boy, through our Fathers love of cricket.
I still recall the day you made a hundred at Silverton, after having to leave the ground with cramps.
It was unbelievable.
To grow up and become great friends with your three sons, who you were so proud of has been an honor.
You always gave your time, and were more than happy to share a whiskey and a chat.
My love and best wishes to Cordelia and family.
RIP Walter x

With Deepest Sympathies to you Cordelia, Colin, Wendell, Keith and your families. We have lost a true friend and a gentleman. Rest in Peace my Friend. You will always be remembered.
Myles & Jothi
Walter: You could never say NO, you were ever willing to help anybody and not expect anything in return. You have left us a huge void by your early return to the place that God had reserved for you where the joys never end and you are pain free. Your place amongst the Family and Friends will never be filled. We do have lots of fond memories of the many trips, fun filled get-togethers and your smile which we will cherish and hold onto.
To Cordelia, Colin, Wendell & Keith + Families: We know you are inconsolable. May time ease the pain in your hearts. We offer our heartfelt sympathies at this sad time. Our regret is the inability to be there as we bring Walter’s worldly innings to a close. In true sporting fashion he played by the rule book and straight bat.
Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss.
Our deepest sympathies,thoughts and prayers
go out to the late Walter and his family, may he rest in peace.Aubrey and Nirmala Stainwall.

R.I.P Walter our dear friend, I may have not know you as long as Desmond has, for the short time that I did, you were a beautiful soul.
I hope it comforts you Cordelia to know that your grief is shared by all of us who knew Walter. He was a wonderful friend and he will be sorely missed”.
Judy & Desmond Foulstone

Cordelia and family may you find comfort in knowing you are not alone, you are surrounded by those who care for you, May God Bless and protect you.
Hi Cordi,
Walter was such a gentle soul. You could not ask for a more patient, quiet spoken person. I recall the many times he would quietly approach me at Wallawwa and make his presence felt with a soft line ( often a smart arse remark ) that always had me turning around to see his smiling face.
I’m so sorry. My parents send their sympathies as well; they both speak very highly of him.
Our prayers are with you and your family.
We must meet up sometime. Until then, take care and may god bless you all.
Treherne
“What a friend we have in JESUS are sins and grieves to bear what a privilege to carry everything to GOD in prayer”. Matthew Ch5 Verse4 “Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted”.

Love & Gods blessings
