Not sure what to say?

I just learned of his passing and wanted to say thank you to him. he was my teacher, my friend and I was his student aide for two years. He always believed in me and I will never forget the senior San Francisco trip and how he held all of us in line (sort of). My last conversation with him was right before before he passed and he never let on that anything was wrong with him. God Bless You Mr. Crosson-

I never had the pleasure of having Mr. Crosson as a teacher at WHS although I did attend there and remember him very well...but was glad I had the second chance to really know him as Jim. I will always miss him as one of my favorite customers ...the man I would look for to make me smile with his jokes and positive outlook. Rest in peace, Jim...

Like so many others, Shawn and I have always considered Jim to be very special in our lives. (He was the Best Man in our wedding 15 years ago, and I sang next to him in the choir for 7 years.) We miss you, Jim, but know that you are now free from pain and have found the Glory of His Holy Presence.

Many fond memories of an honest person with good integrity.

How could we forget the booming voice of the WHS Lions? Rest well, Mr. Crosson.

Mr. Crosson was one of those teachers you never forget- I have some great memories of his class. My prayers to his family and friends. He was a great teacher.

I had the honor of teaching with and being Jim's friend during his teaching days at Westminster High School. He truly loved our school and the students and really was the voice for our football team and our halftime shows. We always found time to joke about sc/UCLA football games . He also attended the same high school, Marshall High in Los Angeles, even though he was there ahead of me. I shall miss this wonderful man. All those that have known him through the years, know that we have lost a...

I had the great pleasure of being a student of Jim Crosson's at Westminster High School and then the privilege of working with him at WHS for several years. He had a passion for teaching and loved his students. He was extremely supportive of the drill team and cheerleading programs and I am thankful for his friendship during my teaching years. He was the voice of the Lions for years and his booming voice will be forever missed. I was truly blessed to have known such a great person. My...

I worked several years at Westminster High School with Jim and always considered him a special friend. I know he's singing bass with the angels in heaven today and throughout eternity. I always told him he should write a book about his life because he'd had so many unique and interesting experiences. We will miss seeing him in the choir at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church each Sunday. I hope he got to watch the USC Trojans beat Michigan in the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day--from his heavenly...
