Not sure what to say?

Sorry I am unable to attend Saturday's service, Seeing of Walt's passing brought back great memories of the Cronise home. All my sympathy to all.

I will never forget you walter, i remember eating spegetti squash with mom. Jon and family my heart goes out to you.

I used to love the banter between Uncle Walter & Greg Budell on WAXY106. He was also great on WPLG. Sympathy to his family. We'll miss you Walter & remember...KEEP THE DINGHY ON THE TRAILER!!!

Sunny days.

I remember when my family moved to SFlorida in 1979 watching Channel 10 news with Ann Bishop Don Noe and Walt Kronise.He was truly the best.May he rest in Peace.

I worked with " Uncle Walter " while I was at 105.9 WAXY FM. I looked forward every afternoon to him calling in and recording his weather report for the shows. He was one of a kind. A true legend. Prayers to all his family, fans and friends. God's rest and peace.

Sorry for your loss. Walt was a great guy. Ed S. neighbor from Andover.

It was a pleasure to work with Uncle Walt on the Daybreak shift. He was always so kind and the sense of humor of a sailor. We all missed him when he retired from Channel 10 and we will all miss him more now that he is watching over us. God bless and RIP Walt, you will be missed.

iI AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. WE HOPER THAT THE HOPE FROM GOD'S WORD BRING YOU COMFORT. ACTS 5:28,29
