Darnell Walker, born on July 8, 1983, entered into eternal rest on October 24, 2024, peacefully at his home in Hamden, Connecticut. Born to the late Dorothy Walker, Darnell grew up in New Haven, where he developed a love for learning, community, and entrepreneurship that guided him throughout his life.
A proud graduate of James Hillhouse High School, Darnell went on to earn his Bachelor's degree from DeVry University. His passion for business led him to establish multiple successful ventures, each a testament to his dedication and drive. Known for his sharp business acumen, Darnell was also admired for his kindness and generosity, always ready to lend a helping hand and share his wisdom with others.
Darnell leaves behind his beloved wife, Dominique Johnson, and their two cherished children, Ava and Ayden Walker. He is also remembered by a host of family and friends who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.
Darnell was predeceased by his mother, Dorothy Walker; great-grandfather, James Antrum; grandmother, Geneva Walker; great-aunts, Emma Walker and Ellen McCray; and his uncle, Leighton Walker.
The family will hold a private memorial service to celebrate Darnell's life and legacy. His spirit, kindness, and love for others will live on in all who had the privilege of knowing him
