October 10, 1923 - October 3, 2010
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Walter Staheli on October 3, 2010 one week prior to his eighty-seventh birthday. He passed away peacefully in the hospital with his family at his bedside.
Walter is survived by his dog Sasha who was with him wherever he went. His children, Dianne (Terry), Marilyn (Ron) and Glen (Marj); sister Ruth (Joe) and three nieces; grandchildren. Heather, Jason (Karen), Tyler (Thirza), Jeffrey and Nathan. Walter was predeceased by Goldie in 2005. With great appreciation we wish to acknowledge Goldie's daughter and her family who played a large part in Walter's life. They are Kim (Steve) and their children, Jennifer (Chris), Michelle (Jon) and Brian. Walter was also blessed with seven great-grandchildren.
Walter started Staheli Construction in 1954 and was very successful in the oilfield and highway construction. He also had a passion for flying in both fixed wing and helicopters. He was a very avid fisherman and enjoyed the outdoors. He spent the last 38 winters in Mesa, Arizona with numerous friends. There he enjoyed his daily swim and walking in the desert. He and Goldie travelled throughout the States and Mexico in their RV with their dog. He spent his summer months at Wabamun Lake where he considered the neighbours like family.
As was Walter's wish, no service will be held Cremation has taken place.
In memory of Walter, donations may be made to The Edmonton S.P.C.A. Dogs have always been his most trusted companions.
