One of the most generous people West Seattle has ever known is gone.
Adah Cruzen, whose philanthropy was was well known and a continuation of that her husband Earl Cruzen who passed in 2017, celebrated her 95th birthday last year at her home at Aegis Living in the Admiral District.
The drive to do the right thing has been part of Arne Lyshall’s life for all his 92 years.
Born in Seattle in 1928, he grew up in a broken home living with his aunt whose faith would later mean a lot to him.
As a boy he developed a love of drawing.
That ability to see things as they are and preserve it would come to be a big part of his life later too.
Enrolled at Franklin High School, Arne saw the second world war raging. Newspapers were filled with headlines about battles taking place and men dying in both Europe and Asia. Knowing that nearly every able bodied man had joined the fight, Arne would help out unloading boxcars and ships on the Seattle waterfront. He saw men being shipped out as he stayed home and finally came to a decision. He would leave school as a junior and join the Marines, just after the war ended.
