Remembering Korean War veteran Walter Kevin Larkin Sr.

October 30, 2026

Supervisor Spiegel's office was honored to pay tribute to Korean War veteran Walter Kevin Larkin Sr., remembering a life defined by service, family, and a love of adventure.
Walter proudly served in the United States Army with the 31st Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division. At age 91, he returned to South Korea, revisiting Camp Casey more than seven decades after his service, a meaningful journey with his daughter Dana by his side.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Larkin family and all who knew and loved him. We are grateful for Walter’s service to our nation and honored to help keep his memory alive.
