Even though I have only been Mr. Walker's daughter-in-law for eight months, I have learned a lot about him. I can tell you that because of him, I have a wonderful, caring, loving husband. I have also learned to cook too, and Jonathan likes that. He welcomed me into his home when I needed it and he was always a good man to me. Jonathan should be thankful for the way he was raised because he grew into a fine, handsome man, and I am proud to be part of the Walker family. I love all of you.

As I sit and think about a new year and a old year diminished,I truly have loving thoughts of my brother Mike. He was always my keeper as a child and on thru our adult years. Mike was always there for me in times of need all I had to do was call. WhenI think about our childhood and the trouble I kept him in, I laugh and cry.When he met his wife Debra, whom he loved and adored, I was the jealous sister whom I felt this girl had taken my brother from me. My brother never left me as I came to realize as we grew older. Family was so important to Mike. Not a day went by that he did not go to any link to provide for his family, even until his last hour. Mike came to know and accept the lord, and I know he is still watching out for his family from the heaven above. He said the cancer would not take his sunshine, and it did not for you could not take the love Mike had for his family, that was his sunshine "HIS FAMILY." I would like to take this time to thank everyone who took the time to input words and thoughts about my brother. I know this time of the year was a busy one and I appreciate the time you gave to his family. I will truly miss my brother, but knowing he is with our father in heaven, one day I will be united with him.

May God be with this family... Mike was a genius when it came to computers, he had coached us thru many of problems. His grandson was the highlight of his day, He would say," He looks just like me"! Mike fought a long and hard battle, may he rest in peace.

I grew up on the red clay fields at South Macon Ballpark playing t-ball with Jonathan on the T-Braves and loved Mr. Mike despite him picking on me for being the only girl on the team. What a fun-loving, happy, wonderful man. Many years have passed since I saw him last, but it always saddens me to hear that someone from our South Macon family has passed. I know that Mr. Mike is in peace with our Heavenly Father. I send my condolences to the entire Walker family and want you all to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless each of you at this time. With love, Tori Gomm (Williams)

Hi Brenda & family,
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of Mike. I do know exactly what you are going thru...I lost my mom 30 years ago Tuesday; the 21st. If you ever need to talk I'm just a phone call away. Mike coached my youngest daughter in T-Ball about 17 years ago at South Macon & yes he was a great coach. May the Good Lord Above be with all of you at this time. HE can & will stand by you.
Take care.

The time that I have known Mike has been a wonderful blessing. He was a very kind and generous man. He loved his family and loved to volunteer at schools. He will be greatly missed. He is at peace now with the Lord and his suffering has now ended. If there is anything that I can do for the family, please do not hesitate to call.

When I saw Michael at Thanksgiving, it was a blessing and it made me realize how much I missed him, and how much my cousins in Macon really mean to me. When we were all kids we were a part of one another's life, but we grew up and grew apart. I have wished many times we lived closer so we could all have family get-togethers more often, and get to know one another.
I feel sad for Michael because I know he was a good person, a strong-willed individual who took family and togetherness very much to heart, and now he is gone from us. People like Michael are rare, few and FAR between. He loved his family, it showed in his smile, his words, and his tears. Especially on Thanksgiving Day when he broke down and cried as soon as he walked into the church dining-hall and saw Mama, Daddy, Jimbo, William, Karen and Myself. Michael thought the world of us all, but he was especially fond of my parents, his Uncle Scotty and Aunt Dot.
I have not seen Michael much over the years but the times he did come down to see us, when he was doing our Walker/Penney genealogy, I saw special things about the kind of person he was. He thoroughly loved his family, especially our Granny Walker. I was thinking of Granny the other day and how much we all loved her and missed her, and then I thought of Michael. I believe Granny left a mark of herself on all of us, anyone who knew her and knows what a wonderful, loving woman she was would agree. I know Granny will be in heaven waiting to take Michael into her arms and hug him. I am glad I was able to tell Michael I love him and see him one more time before he passed. God bless you, Mikey. If there is a special line for God's chosen ones at the pearly gates of heaven, I am sure you are standing at the front of the line. God bless Michael's family, his wife and children, Brenda and Terry and all who have felt the pain of Michael's passing. I know he touched every one of your lives in some form or fashion, and you will greatly miss him. If you ever need anything, you know how to contact me.

Debora and family: we are so sorry to hear of your loss. Mike was very special to both of us and we had many wonderful times together, laughing and joking, even on the computer. And Mike was a computer wiz, bad thing was, he knew it, and didnt mind telling you, in his usual little "I told you so" way. He was such a positive person during his whole illness and we talked about it many times together. He kept telling us he knew he could beat this problem, and in his heart, I think he did beat it. But in the end weakness took over and took Mike too. He dearly loved his family and especially his little grandson. Mike would beam like the sun when he spoke of this little boy. He would always say, "Yep, he is a Walker, just look how good looking he is." Mike will be very much missed. And we will certainly miss our telephone and computer conversations we had with him. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all, and we are here for you, just let us know when. Love to you all, Terry and Jewell
