Salisbury - Walter W. Duncanson, Jr.
Walter W. Duncanson, Jr. died April 14, 2022 after a long illness. He was born August 6, 1932 to Ellen and Walter W. Duncanson, Sr. in New York City at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital.
Walter grew up in Teaneck, NJ. He lived there for 28 years until he met Lynne his sweetheart. They were engaged on Easter, April Fools after knowing each other for 18 days!
Walter attended prep school at Newton School in Windham, VT. He served in the army during the Korean War from 1953 to 1955. Walter worked at the Post Office in Teaneck, NJ for two and a half years and one day he came home and asked if it was all right to be a fulltime philatelist (stamp dealer/collector.) Our first-born was an infant and I said "yes." I also had to tell his Dad.
We were married for 60 years this past July 15; he was able to enjoy celebrating with friends and family.
Walter leaves his wife, Lynne; daughter Whitney, her husband Doug, their children Laura and wife Eliza, Ellen, Charles, and William; son Trey (Walter III), his wife Alysia, their daughters Sabryna and husband Matt and son Zane; Samantha, her husband Nick and son Maximus; daughter Kim and her children Carolyn, Jessica, and Lane; and son Brandyn. Walter and Lynne lost a son Tyson Hale to S.I.D.S. in 1972 and grandson T.J. in 2014.
A graveside service will be held at the cemetery on Holman Road in Salisbury on Saturday, April 23 at 10:00. Friends, neighbors, and family are invited back to the house for refreshments.
Donations can be made to S.I.D.S. or Suicide Prevention organizations.
