Walter William Anderson

Walter is lovingly remembered by his wife of 61 years, Katherina, his daughters Donna (Dennis) and Joan (Garry), grandchildren Michelle (Kris), Stephanie, David and Christine, sister Hilma, his nieces and nephews. He enjoyed his long morning walks, gardening, woodworking projects, reading and travel. Walter was devoted to his family and the way he treated people and lived his life inspires us.

Dear Kay, Donna, Joan and their families. Our heartfelt and sincerest condolences on the passing of Walter. Mom and I relived some cherished memories of all of you today.
Leona, Doug & Glynis, and Lois Snider
Donna, Joan, and Mrs. Anderson,
Mom and Dad (Harry and Thelma) always kept me “up to date” on how Walter and Kay were doing. I know it’s been a lot of years since we’ve seen each other Donna and Joan, but I am thinking of you and I’m sorry to hear of your dad’s passing.
Karen (Caddy) and Phil Kanske
Dear Katie, Donna, and Joan, although I haven’t seen you all for many years, Mom keeps me up to date on news of the Andersons, so was sad to hear that Walter is gone. Many memories brought to life of family get togethers at Missions, Brackendale, and Surrey. Thinking of you.
Heather Hinrichsen (Peterson)
