Judith L. Walker, a beacon of love and warmth, left this world on December 19, 2025, at the age of 79. Born on October 6, 1946, Judith was a devoted mother, grandmother, wife, and sister, whose gentle spirit and quirky sense of humor touched the lives of all who had the privilege to know her.
A loving mother and grandmother, Judith cherished every moment spent with her beloved children, Kim Ozerkan, married to Ibrahim, and Eric Walker, married to Katherine. Her grandchildren, Kaan, Avery, and Micah, were the light of her life, and she often expressed her joy in watching them grow and flourish. Their laughter and happiness brought her immense pride, and they will forever remember the endless stories she told, filled with her special brand of humor and warmth.
Judith was also a wonderful wife to her late husband, Richard Walker. Their love was a beautiful testament to the bond of marriage, one that resonated with deep affection and unwavering support. Together, they made memories that will linger in the hearts of those they left behind.
Family meant everything to Judith, and her sister, Trudy Morris, was not only a sibling but also a cherished friend. Their shared moments were filled with laughter, confidences, and unbreakable support through life’s ups and downs. Judith's loving nature extended beyond her immediate family, encompassing a wide circle of family and friends who admired her for her faith and dedication to her church. Her spiritual beliefs were an essential part of who she was, providing her with strength and solace throughout her life.
Judith delighted in the simple things — whether it was a quiet afternoon spent at home or working on her family photo albums. Her ability to find joy in everyday moments taught all who knew her to appreciate the beauty of simplicity.
Though she has departed from this earth, Judith L. Walker’s legacy of love, humor, and faith will continue to resonate within the hearts of her family and friends. As they remember her extraordinary life, they will carry forward her spirit, ensuring that the lessons she imparted and the love she shared will never be forgotten.
