Flavius H. Walton, 94, of Troy, and formerly of Kirkwood, passed away on Wednesday, Aug. 29, 2012 at Troy Manor.
He was born on Dec. 10, 1917, at Hawk Point to Douglas and Rebecca (Gibbs) Walton. Flavius was blessed to have eight siblings. He never met a stranger and was able to make friends with anyone.

During WWII, Flay was called to serve in the U.S. Army. While in service, he participated in the Aleutian Campaign, Naples-Foggia Campaign, Rome-Arno Campaign, Southern France Campaign and Germany Campaign. Flay was a man of integrity and honesty.
