Walter Charles Obituary Walter Charles - Musical Theater Star, dies at 78. Walter Charles, who rose to celebrity on Broadway in La Cage Aux Folles and as the original Scrooge in A Christmas Carol at Madison Square Garden, passed a Read Obituary
Walt was my late husband's (Lowell Kenton West) best friend, beginning in high school, and my son's (Ericson) Godfather. I would always try to see Walt when he toured with a show to a city near me. He was a truly remarkable, lovely, gentle man and an outstanding actor. Ericson & I will miss him greatly.
Walter and I were students at Boston University. We met up again in LA on La Cage. I was playing piano. I did not know Walter had left us. Matter of fact, I had a mutual friend, the late conductor, Jeff Rizzo, ask Walter to get in touch with me last year, just for Auld LangSyne.Now I know why I didn't hear from him, his terrible illness. My deepest co ndolences to his wife.Kathy Rubbicco
Rest in Peace Walter Hugs and prayers Leslie
