We were so sorry to hear of the loss of Walter. Our love & condolences to Joan & family.
We'll always remember Walters laugh and his love of playing his accordion and his waves, driving by. He lit up when talking about Joan and his kids & grandkids. We're very grateful to have had Walter in our lives, if only for a short time. We'll miss him everyday.

You can see my true love for my papa in these pictures and I'm so sad that he's gone but I know that he will be watching and protecting me by the stars and the moon that I see every night. Every time I look at these pictures a little smile appears on my face and I remember the amazing memories we have and I'll never forget you. There will always be a special spot in my heart for you

I was very saddened to learn that your dear Walter had passed away. I got to know him when I sometimes played the organ at St. Andrew's. His beautiful obituary described the man I knew, and I know he will be greatly missed , not just by you, his family and church family, but by the entire community of Mulgrave. When I hear a church bell ring, I will think of Walter. God bless you all.

So sad to see another good one gone.
Walter was always such a kind and caring member of the community.
I can remember looking up to him when I was a kid as he was such a great fire chief and presence and always had a calmness about him.
The situation no matter how bad was always better with Walter on the scene.
He will be surely missed and my sincere condolences to you Joanie, Walter jr, Crystal, Melinda Bobby and Kyle.
Remember him well, I know I will.
Sincerely,
Wylie

My deepest heartfelt condolences to Joanie and all the Crant Family. May you all keep your memories of Walter in your hearts forever. He will be missed by many. May he actually rest in peace now and watch over you all from heaven.
Walter was an amazing man, every time I seen him he was working hard at something or helping an organization or someone out. The last time I seen him in 2021 when I was home from Alberta, he was at the church basement working on something. He never stopped giving back to his community and family. We could all learn something from this great man!
Much love and big hugs to you all,
Janet (Jan) Morris

Walter's life was a living testament to his wisdom, generosity, and selfless spirit. As he worked tirelessly for the town and volunteered at the fire department, his kindness and dedication touched countless lives. His unwavering commitment to lending a hand to his church showed the true depth of Walter's character. May we all find inspiration in the legacy he left behind and strive to live by his example.

Dear Joanie and family:
I echo my sister’s sentiments, Walter was kindness personified. He “always” played Mom’s favourite song “Maple Sugar” on his many visits to Milford Haven, taking the time to have a brief conversation with her and a quick hug. Sincere condolences to you all. Lorraine Hadley, Dartmouth NS

In memory of Walter, a man whose kind heart, boundless generosity, and thoughtfulness enriched the lives of those around him. During the years I worked with him he was a dedicated employee, he made an indelible mark not only in the company but also within the community through his tireless efforts in giving back. The profound impact of his departure will reverberate through the hearts and minds of those he has touched; may he forever be remembered by all who mourn his loss.
