From Eula Trezevant Matthews 12/25/2020. I met Deputy Walthers thru my son Terry Don Matthews at Margaret B Henderson Elementary School. Terry Don and Dennis Walthers, son of Deputy Walthers.Terry Don and Dennis Walthers were close school friends. In later years I met and became friends with Mrs Walthers, Widow of Deputy and Mother of Dennis. I still remember The Walthers family as I regularly drive past their home as I travel on West Illinois Avenue in Wynnewood

I knew Buddy....later briefly talked with his murderer, James Walter Cherry. A cold individual with no remorse.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 43rd anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service.

Rest In Peace.
