Alton was born on Feb. 24, 1949 in Lampasas to Kyle and Melba Harrison. He grew up in Lampasas and graduated from Lampasas High School.
Alton worked as a well driller for the family business, then worked and retired from the State of Texas. He was a member of the Lampasas Volunteer Fire Department and a Master Mason of Saratoga Lodge #546.
Known as “Ton,” he was a mountain of a man with a big heart. He enjoyed hunting, as well as collecting coins and zippos. He especially enjoyed time spent with his family and friends. He was a devoted patron of the coffee shop and over the last few years enjoyed the morning crowd that gathered under his carport.
Alton was preceded in death by his brother, Gary Don; his wife, Jean; his daughter, Ramona, and her husband Gary Hall.
Survivors are his brothers Glenn (Sandy), Jerry (Edith), David and Richard (Linda); a daughter, Darla Taylor (Ray), and sons Jim and Chris (Hannah). He loved his role as Grampy to his grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, and uncle to his nieces and nephews.
