On June 17, 1915, Walter married Loa Lloyd. He continued flying the Curtiss F-Boat "Alice" for Steward McDonald. He was primarily
involved in carrying passengers for joyrides over Lake Michigan and Lake Geneva. Later, he flew for the Curtiss Airplane Company in
Buffalo on Lake Erie. Forrest Wysong, later President of the Early Birds of Aviation, recalls flying with Walter
in an F-Boat.
