Carl O. Walter III Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Carl O. Walter III, 65, succumbed to brain cancer Friday, March 6, 2020. He leaves his wife, Marcia; daughter, Candie, her husband Josh Cortopassi, and grandson, Louis. He also leaves his mother, Edna Warner; sisters, Suzi Senzig, Jan Evans, their husbands, Dick and Steve, respectively; nieces, nephews, and supportive friends and family. He was graduated from John Brown University in 1976 with a B.S. degree in Business Admin. While at JBU he played bass trombone and toured with The Sound Generation. It was in those early adult years he learned the discipline and work ethic of the phrase, ‘the show must go on.’ That philosophy served him well throughout his long career with the UniGroup companies. He was uniquely gifted for the responsibilities of marketing, sales, corporate communications and convention planning. He was actively involved in church leadership over the years, and one of his greatest joys was as a Technical Director of Contemporary Worship at Bonhomme Presbyterian Church. Carl’s memorial service, also at Bonhomme, is open to all and will be held in the Sanctuary on Friday, March 13 at 11am. Burial will be a private ceremony in The Memorial Garden at Bonhomme. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions “In memory of Carl Walter” be made to either, Mission to the World, a ministry that supports churches in five countries (MTW, PO Box 744165, Atlanta, GA 30374); or, Bonhomme Presbyterian Church (Bonhomme, 14820 Conway Rd, Chesterfield, MO 63017), and will be designated toward Sound Investment, a fund that will help with expenses for future concerts and programs.
