Nice Piece in Memory of Walter Hooper

So, came across a short piece in memory of Walter Hooper that I thought did a good job of acknowledging his achievements.  Here's the link to it posted on the Wade Center website (in recognition of his having won their Lifetime Achievement award).

Knowing that he was a great lover of cats (he occasionally made reference to one storied cat named Claire the Meek), I found myself wondering whether he had a cat at the time of his death and what provisions might have been made for her.
