Walter owned several business's in the city of Detroit, Michigan. He had two large second hand stores one the East side of Detroit and the other on the West side of Detroit. He was also the owner of Moyer's Supermarket on Porter St. for several years.
In his younger years he helped on the farm with his father in Pa. I found records where he lived with other folks on their farms to earn money for his family as a teen.
Sometime in his young years his was in a bad car accident, very lucky not to have lost his life.
He went out on his own and started a fish & poultry business in Pa.
After serving in the Army Air Corps during WWII, in the Orient and after his first marriage braking up he moved to Detroit to start a new life. He met and married his second wife of thirty two years. He learned the trade of a brick mason and for many years that's how he supported his new ready made family.
The nickname he grew up with was Dutch because of his genetics being German-Dutch and spoke both, but all of us kids called him Mosey May.
In his final years he owned a concession truck and did well. At the end of the evenings he would stop and give away the Ice cream he had left over. As he pulled up at the house, our front porch would be covered with the neighborhood kids awaiting their turn for a free ice cream.
Thank you in advance to everyone that leaves tokens for my Dad.
