Walter G. McAnney, Jr., 89, of Mount Gretna, died Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2020.

Born in Philadelphia on Apr. 3, 1931, he was the son of the late Walter G., Sr. and Laura May (Moser) McAnney. Walter worked for Keystone Shipping Company, but his great love was music and playing the organ. He played for churches in the area as well as the Philadelphia area. In the month of July, for 20 years, Walt and his friend, Peter Hewitt, held an organ concert series in their living room in Mount Gretna. The series grew to more than 100 people attending, providing great music and fellowship. Walt will be missed by many.

Surviving is lifelong friend, Peter F. Hewitt, and Peter’s daughters, Gillian M. Hewitt, and her children, Ben and Natasha Hewitt, and Anne S. Hewitt, and her children, Will and Daniel Suslovic.

Services will be private. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in Walt’s memory to the Harrisburg Chapter of the AGO (American Guild of Organists) and sent to Harrisburg AGO, 1102 Ballyhannon Dr., Elizabethtown, PA 17022.
