Michael A "Mike" Walker

Michael "Mike" Walker, age 40 and 10 days, of Hardy, NE, crossed the finish line on January 13, 2024, in Dallas, TX, leaving behind a trail of cherished memories. Born on January 3, 1984, in Superior, NE, to his proud parents Michael Walker and Debra (Fuller) Walker of Superior NE. Mike was a true ray of sunshine in everyone's lives. With his uplifting spirit and contagious smile, he could light up the gloomiest room. He lived his life with a sense of adventure and had a warm and gentle demeanor that made his hugs truly special.
In his career, Mike was a man of many talents. He welded, managed an Ethenol plant, and even ran circles as a fabricator for Strobel Racing. When it came to fencing, he was no ordinary wire bender - at Walker Fencing, he built fences that were a cut above the rest. As if that wasn't impressive enough, he was also pursuing a degree in nursing at Cloud County Community College. Talk about a man with many irons in the fire!
When he wasn't busy with his endeavors, Mike raced towards his passions. He revved up his engines with motocross, hunted for adventure, and reeled in joy while fishing. Spending quality time with his wife, the love of his life, Debra Sanchez, gave him a whole other kind of thrill. And let's not forget about his love for Sturgis - he rode into the wild with a grin as big as the open road. Teaching his kids, Henry, Luis, and Alex a trick or two along the way was his specialty.
Join us for a Celebration of Life as we gather Saturday, January 27, 2024 at 2:00 pm in Price Funeral Home, located in Superior, NE, to honor Mike's vibrant journey. A fitting post-event shindig will be held at Hardy Hall in Hardy, NE, where tales of his adventures will surely echo through the room. Assisting the family in this bittersweet moment, Price Funeral Homes Superior, NE, is lending a caring hand.
