Friends are gathering tomorrow (Sept. 7) at the International Bar to celebrate the life of longtime East Village resident Walter Kohl (aka Unkle Waltie).
Kohl, who had been recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer,
died on July 30. He was 69.
The iBar is at 102 First Ave. between Sixth Street and Seventh Street.
For further reading about Unkle Waltie's phrase "Sip ahoy," check out these posts from 2011 via our old friend Marty, who's actually not that old.
