I was blessed to meet Alton through my community sister Allison. He was a man of God-kind, joyful, intelligent, and full of life. He shared his gifts so lovingly, especially through his delicious homemade apple pies and jazzy playlists. He cherished his family and friendships deeply. Heaven has gained a beautiful soul. Praying for peace, comfort, and strength over the Walker family. Forever Friend, Kina
