The Garden Island one is on Lake Champlain, just off shore from Plattsburgh, NY. The blonde on the right is me, and the brunette on the left is Wally's daughter, Alice Cox. I've lost contact with Alice, but wouId love to locate her. I still live in Plattsburgh, and the photo was taken during one of Wally's summer visits to us.

The black / white pictures with the broom was taken at Wally's summer home on LI, before he moved to Hollywood, CA. That's me with him. I'll always remember the run down condition of his homes!! He didn't like housekeepers around, so everything was usually cluttered and in need of repair. He preferred to live in old "fixer upper" homes. The last home he had in BelAire CA, was the nicest one I remember! There is also one of Wally as a young boy. I believe it was taken at his home in MI, but I'll ask my mom?

I am delighted that Amy found our website, and contacted me regarding Wally Cox. I received several e-mails from Amy in May / June 2004 asking me if I would like to do a tribute to her late uncle. Amy was kind enough to send me a bunch of rare family photos of Wally and his family. These photos have never been released to the general public, until now. We hope to share additional photos of Wally and his life in the years ahead.

"Many thanks to Amy for sharing these loving memories will all of us!"
