Born April 21, 1926 in Canton, he was the son of Raymond and Matilda Mitchell Belawski.
He and his wife Mary have celebrated 44 years of marriage.
Walter served in the U.S. Army during WWll. After his employment at Ward Manufacturing, he became self employed by starting Belawski Nursery.
His greatest joy was making things grow; working on landscaping and making sure it was done right. There will be many who will miss his "green thumb", and his well-lit Christmas tree which was enjoyed by countless people.
