Jimmy Walker

I was in Madison Square Garden on a snowy night in the 1960s watching the ECAC tournament, and I was awed by the incomparable performance of Jimmy as he scored 50 against Boston College.

My condolence to the Walker family.

I met Jimmy thirty years ago when he along with other post pro players participated in basketball and tennis camps (for inner city youths) as well as tournaments held at the Wohl Community Center, Forest and Fairground Parks here in St. Louis. I will always remember our debate over the correct pronunciation of "tournament." He truly was fun to be around and a pleasure to know. He was interesting, funny, charming, articulate, professional,...

Back in the day..we really had some good time together..I will always cherish those memories.
