  • On this day Wally attends the funeral of the father of his jail administrator, Jim Heard. Attending the funeral in Salter, the next town over from Marshall, takes a huge bite out of his jam-packed day but not attending never crosses his mind. At the funeral he navigates the sea of raw emotion. He is a calming influence, as if by his presence everyone knows "it'll be alright." Here Wally chats up, Joe Clement, a 7-foot tall friend he’s known since childhood.
