I will always remember Walt as the class clown person at Centennial Contractors. I will miss his bright smile and wise jokes.

My life with my Dad started when I was born but not as a father but as my uncle. My mother passed away when my brother, sister and I where very young, my brother and I were later adopted by the only man I consider to be my father. He worked very hard his entire life to try to provide for and raise his children with strong morals,convictions and a desire to be the best they could be. He had many ups and downs with me, but he never gave up on me, and I miss him dearly. Our talks always seemed to enlighten each of us about the other. My heart and sympathies go out to Lois who was the love of his life. She was and always will be the best woman that ever was in his life, and for that I am grateful to her. She made his life complete, and filled it with joy. I am sorry that Dad didn't get to spend more time with his grandsons Odhinn and Lugh, as they loved him very much and looked forward to seeing him on Sundays. He always had a way of looking at a situation and find a positive in it, even if it was just a joke to make you smile or laugh. He was always there to help in times of need and he gave with his heart, never looking for what was going to come back his way in return.
He was and is my champion and role model, and all I hope to do is to become half the man he was. May he always be remembered in a loving and caring fashion as he lived his life.
I am sure that this will get easier as times go by but for now I am at a loss and miss my Dad very much.

Walter always has had, and always will have, a most special place in my heart. He has been my big brother from the day I was born. As we endured so many challenges as children, we were each others' console and strength. Never have I imagined this world without Walter in it. I know now that his physical absence will not change that. Walter, I love you, and I thank you for the years that you have been there. I thank you for your wonderful sense of humor that never failed to bring a smile to so many faces.
Lois, you are in my thoughts every moment of this grieving process. Walter loved you so, and I am thankful that you enriched his life. I will always hear Walter saying, "Let me talk to my honey", or "Let me see what my honey wants to do." You were his "Honey" in every sense of the word.
Walter's life is one worth celebrating, and I am comforted by the memories.

First, we send our deepest sympathies to Lois and Walt's Family. His laugh, wit and genuine humor will be missed.
Walt was my best friend and mentor. The best thing about him was his heart, he was the most giving, fair and honest man I knew. Its ironic my friend died of a heart attack, probly because that was his most used muscle. I meet Walt in the early 80's, he was living in a trailer in Somis, California and I lived close by in a trailer, we were the original white trailer trash. We started working together and quickly grew a deep appreciation for each other. I admired and appreciated his vast knowledge of any subject and his down to earth common sense and he appreciated my vigor and brawn. As the years went on we always took care of each other. When I needed work Walt provided and visa versa. Walt encouraged me to go to college to learn the Uniform Building Code, Blueprint Reading & Sketching, Advanced English, Business Law and Algebra. When I didn’t understand the theories and problems Walt would tooter me in the evenings. With his help & guidance I aced every class.
Although his life had many ups and downs, divorces, bankruptcies, hard times and good times financially he always walked through life with a positive attitude encouraging everyone around him. In the early years of our friendship we drank and partied, a lot together then twenty two years ago I accepted Christ into my heart and quit drinking. Walt loved his Coors bullets and continued to drink for many years after that, but he kept his eye on me and was in amazement of how my life had changed. He finally gave up drinking and accepted Christ then I watched his life change. Although I’ll miss my good friend I take great comfort knowing that he is in heaven with our Lord and I’ll one day see him again. Who knows, we may be building gold streets together.
I’m thankful that Walt and I kept in close contact even after he married Lois (the love of his life), we would call each other and e-mail regularly. I will miss my good friend!
In His LOVE,
Greg Kenney

Grandpa Walt will be missed very sorely by our family. I am gratefull for all of the times he helped us or had great advice for us. He always had a smile, a hug, and some witty little joke to make you laugh no matter what obstacles might have been your stumbling block on that particular day. While many comment on how tall a man he was we feel that his heart was his biggest asset and he always gave of it so freely. Our 5 year old son Russell loves him so very much and I know he still doesn't understand why he is not here with us but we will help to keep his memory alive for him with pictures and stories. We are grateful that Grandpa Walt was here for our youngest child Rowan's birth and that the little time they had together will be cherished always. While his physical body may not be here with us, his memory, his spirit, and his love will be alive in our hearts forever. We will miss you Grandpa Walt! All our love-Robert, Erin, Russell, & Rowan Scholl

Grandpa Walt.... All the things I could say about him would take me hours but the main thing that I would like to say is he was the best grandfather anyone could ask for, he was always willing to lend a hand, and he was always willing to be there for you in any situatuion. When you sat down to talk to him you would never not laugh or have a good time he always loved to tell jokes and was always the one to make you feel better or to make you smile. I loved him very much and i know that god has a good plan for him. Family gatherings are not going to be the same without him but I know he will be looking down on us wishing he was here. Everyone will miss him from neighbors to co-workers to all the family, and he will always be watching over us.
I love you grandpa,
Tommy

The reason why i loved my grampa the most, is that when you were down he would always cheer you back up really fast. Because when he saw that smile on your face you could never take it back when he is around. if you were to call, or walk in the door, he would say whats up home girl or home boy, and for the 12 years I had known him, all that he had to said is stories, stories, stories. that is one thing that would never get old, because he always told new storys, anything from war, sports, school, anything in life, that could happen to you in life. i loved it when he picked me up and threw me in the air. if you were in a money situation he would give you enough to get you through however many days you had to wait. he always went to my sports games and i never new that he liked seeing me play sports. he hardly yelled at you so that was cool. he never treated you bad and he treated like you were an adult. if you wanted to help him he was glad to say yes. everybody that knew me new my grampa. they always said he is so tall and i new that too. he was always there for you. like i said he treated my grammie very well. he never thought of himself first. but i never got to do all of the things i wanted to do with him. he always helped us on are house work and building on to it. so i will miss my grandpa very much. but day by day things should get better.

I love grandpa because he made me laugh. I did a special report on my grandpa because he was in the milatary, and i was proud of that. I love to know that grandpa was at all my soccer games. Grandpa always picked me up high and i touched the roof, he always gave the best hugs. i will miss my grandpa soo much.

Walter M. Crosson Sr. is my dad & I have known him for a good percentage of my life. I enjoyed spending time with him doing different things even if it meant just a trip to the store he always made it fun. I wish that he had the opportunity to meet his grandson Andrew but unfortunately that can’t happen. So now I will explain to my daughter & son how wonderful a person my dad really is & they will experience him through me.
Sincerely Autumn, Andrew & Walter Crosson with lots of love.
