Dear Brother Walker Family, Our Brother Walker always mentored my son for years, teaching him to always CTR, even after we moved to a different state. As a Mother, no one will ever know how much this meant to me. He was an example to all who met him, and carried such a charisma. What a wonderful man who influenced all. May you be blessed with peace and comfort, and may all of your needs be met in this time of sorrow. Sincerely, and all of our love. Sheila Quinton and Judy Dorton families.

Dearest Family of our Brother Walker, He mentored my son to try to encourage him to CTR even several years after we moved to a different state. As a Mother, no one knows how much that means. What a wonderful man of influence and a man standing for all that is good. All of our family loved him dearly. May you be blessed with peace and comfort and all things that you are in need of to get through this challenging time. Sincerely, and with all of our love. Sheila Quinton and Judy Dorton families.

Dear Sister Walker,

I am so sorry for your loss. I know he will be greatly missed. He was a wonderful person. I am happy I got to know him. I first met him when he was doing Hospice care and came to visit my older Sister before she passed away.
Sorry we didn't get the email sooner and perhaps we could have made it to the viewing or funeral. The message went to my junk mail and I didn't look at on Sunday.
Just know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Lots of Love,
Colleen Arave

Dear Carol and Family,
My sympathy to you in the loss of Your husband and father. Memories of IF include your fun family with children of the same ages and you, in the Stake Girls camp program at Darby. Newell was a great bishop and friend and seemed to always be smiling. Love to you. Pauline

Caroll and Family,

We express our sympathy for the passing of your special husband and for the kind father he was and is. Many years ago our son Jeff worked at Arthur Treachers and has always spoken so highly of both of you. Greg is also Jeff's best friend. He was in our home and we loved him having him there. He has been a loyal friend. We were coming to the funeral today but we live on a hill above Ammon and the driveway is covered with thick ice. We could perhaps get down the driveway but probably not get back up. WE pray for all of you.

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Walker's passing. I worked at the Gangplank for 3 years and loved every minute of it. Mr. Walker was like a second father to me. He will be greatly missed but Heaven is gaining a great man. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Sending love to Caroll and her family. Newell was an amazing man. I remember the vases of flowers he would cut from his yard for Caroll's Sunday Relief Society lessons. He was a great YM leader and always asked after my son even after we had moved. Generous, loving, a wonderful example of what it truly means to be a great man. He certainly returned with honor from this earthly mission. May all your memories bring you great comfort and peace at this tender time.

Prayers and regards to his family. I was a better man in knowing him. He will be and is missed.
