It is with great sadness that I read about Dr. Walker's passing. I was a Criminal Justice student of his at Kent State ('89). He was a wonderful professor and just recently I was speaking about him and the many anecdotes he would share with the class. My thoughts are with his family.

We're sorry we can't be with you! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!
Love to you-
Kristy & Ed

I'm so very sorry to hear of your loss. If there is anything we can do please let us know.

Lori,
I was so very sorry to read of Don's passing. You were such good next door neighbors and friends on Higby Drive!

Dr.Walker was one of my favorite professors at KSU. A great guy who always stopped to say hello and had a lot of great stories in class. Sorry to read of his passing.

Lori:

At times like this, words cannot say the things we'd like them to, but may it be a help to know my thoughts & prayers are with you. I will always have a special place in my heart for you & your family.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived.

Dale,

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you for the loss you and your family now experienced. I may not have met your father but he seems to be such a great man judging from the achievements and contributions he has made throughout his life. I am sure he had been such a wonderful father so this must be a painful loss. Know that I am here for you at this time of grief.
