I suspect you are a son of Walter. I do have some information on the family and pictures I would love to share with you. My brother, Harold Z. Jr lives in Tucson and I live near San Francisco. We are the only children of Harold and Nell Ann and grew up in Grosse Pointe Woods. I would love keeping in touch and sharing info. Do email me at
