Obituary

Walter Louis Foster was born on August 8, 1952 in Osceola, Arkansas to Walter Foster and Lorene Rhodes.  His parents, his brother James, sister Evelyn, and daughter Katreva have preceded him in death.  Walter transitioned into eternity on November 21, 2022.

Walter graduated from New Madrid High School in 1971 and joined the United States Army soon after.  After a tour of combat duty, he discharged from the military and entered the workforce.  He was considered a “jack of many trades” and held various occupations.  Walter was a hard worker and could be seen working manual labor jobs as late as this past summer. 

Walter enjoyed spending time with his family. ‘Pops’ as he was affectionately called would be the life of the gathering with his jokes and laughter.  His sense of humor kept the people around him laughing and enjoying his company.  Walter was also admired for his loyalty to family and friends. 


Walter leaves to cherish his memory a sister Deloise Foster; four brothers Wilburn (Odessa) Alexander, Willie (Sheila) Alexander, Bruce Alexander and Ira Foster.   Walter also leaves 9 children: Anthony (Sheri) Foster, Darren (Teresa) Foster, Kimberly Williams, Rico Williams, Demarcus Williams, Sonja Williams, Yolanda Foster, Jeremy James and Walter Foster Jr.  He also leaves behind a host of grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews and friends.
