Dearest Bob, You were the best person I ever knew. I was your secretary when you first worked for Southwestern Medical School about 1956 or 1957 when we were in those barracks and you had your monkey lab that I went over and tended for you.

Emily and Family,
Bob will be missed by all who knew him. His impact on my life and career was major. He taught me much about diagnosis to help my patients and a great deal about how to write professional abstracts for journals.

Thank you Dr. Walker for inspiring and teaching so many that you came in contact with. I will always remember your words that you spoke in the face of this adversity. You will be sorely missed here at UTSW. Our prayers are with the family and loved ones you've touched.

Dear Cosgrove/Walker Families~

Just so very sorry to hear about your dad, grandpa and husband---indeed he was a wonderful man---committed to God and to you, his family. We love you all so very much and entrust you to the Lord and His comfort.

Love, The Seaman family

May God hold you in his hands as you have held and cared for so many others throughout your life. Your smile and zest for life will be missed! God bless you and your family at this time.

Our thoughts are with you, Jo Ann. What a legacy your Dad left for you. You reflect so many of his attributes as described in his obituary...compassionate, fun-loving, faith-ful... and you've passed this legacy onto your sons. I'm sure your Dad was proud of all of you. Be blessed and comforted in knowing he lives on through you...and with his Savior. Love and prayers to all of you/your family.
