Actors Profile
Walter Gretzky, CM, O .Ont (born October 8, 1938 in Canning, Ontario, Canada) is the father of NHL legend Wayne Gretzky, as well as Brent and Keith Gretzky . He retired in 1991 after 34 years of employment for Bell Canada . Walter Gretzky was the son of Belarusian immigrants . His father came from Grodno Governorate, Russian Empire than (now Belarus),his mother, from Pidhaitsi (now Ukraine); they immigrated to Canada via Krakow in Poland . Walter played ice hockey for much of his youth, but never made it beyond juniors . He met his wife Phyllis Hockin (October 14, 1941 in Paris, Ontario - December 19, 2005), daughter of Betty Hockin, at a wiener roast at the Gretzky farm when she was 15 and he was 18. She was related to British General Sir Isaac Brock, a hero of the War of 1812. They married in 1960, and moved to Brantford, Ontario. Unlike Walter, who did Sharp ViewCam commercials with Wayne and Wayne's son, Ty, Phyllis Gretzky mostly refused to embrace the celebrity that sprang from their son's exploits, although she did a commercial with Wayne for ProStars Cereal in the 1980s, and appeared in the video Wayne Gretzky: Above and Beyond (1990). Walter was an installer and repairman for Bell Canada for 34 years, retiring in 1991. A work-related injury he suffered in 1961 left him in a coma, and resulted in deafness in his right ear. Five days after his 53rd birthday in 1991, he suffered a near-fatal brain aneurysm which destroyed his long-term memory. His physical therapist, Ian Kohler, married his daughter Kim in 1995. His ordeal is the basis of the CBC movie Waking Up Wally: The Walter Gretzky Story. He spends his time helping charities and fundraisers and coaching at his summer youth hockey camp in California. In his book Walter recounts that during his recovery from his brain aneurysm, the only language he could speak was Ukrainian. .
