Resident Spotlight – July 2024
Our Resident Spotlight shines on Walter Luttrell for the month of July. Mr. Walter was born in Jacksonville, Florida, the youngest of 12 siblings. Shortly after he was born, his family moved to St. Mary’s, Georgia, and then later to Savannah. While he was enlisted with the Air Force Reserve, Mr. Walter was trained in electrical engineering. Walter can be considered a self-taught genius, reading books on physics, including Stephen Hawking’s “A Brief History of Time” just for fun.
Walter and his wife, Janet, have 2 sons, James and Randy who both live in Smyrna. He has one daughter-in-law, Stephany, and one granddaughter, Julie. His hobbies include lifting weights, swimming in the family backyard pool, and hiking at Kennesaw Mountain. Walter is a dedicated family man and would take his family on trips to Panama City Beach, Disney World, and Washington, D.C. His youngest son, Randy, is severely mentally disabled and Walter took early retirement to care for Randy. Walter did everything he could to make sure Randy was well cared for and treated with love, kindness, and dignity.
Here at Woodland Ridge, Walter enjoys doing art classes and reading the newspaper and he especially loves music, mainly Elvis, Dolly Parton, and Neil Diamond. Staff and residents alike say that Walter is a kind, nice person who’s a joy to be around.
We’re so glad he decided to call Woodland Ridge his home.
