Mr. Walker was a true gentleman who I enjoyed working with in the Newport News Circuit Court. He was one of the nicest people I ever met. Newport News has lost a wonderful man who truly loved his fellow man and did all he could to help anyone who had a need. He will be missed by all. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

I met the Honorable Philip Walker when his wife was ill and he was such a devoted husband to her. While tending to his wife, he remained pleasant and appreciative. I admired this fine gentleman.
Edward and Verline,
You were right there when Mrs. Walker was gravely ill and helped Mr. Walker when he needed you the most. Thanks.
Be encouraged and blessed.

My deepest condolences to the Philip S. Walker family. Working for the law firm was my very first career job which was a good and sound foundation. Judge Walker will be sorely missed by his peers and community. May he rest in peace. God be with the family at this time of lost.

Mr. Walker was indeed a humble man who led his life as a beacon for all to cherish him in memory.
I am proud that I had the opportunity of working with Mr. Walker in the mid-eighties as an Administrative Assistant to deceased Archie Felton.

He lived his life that was evident led by God blessings, based upon the numerous honorable achievements shared by all that knew him.

Judge Walker was one of the finest jurist that I had the privilege to practice before for many years. He treated everyone with respect, fairness and dignity and he was a man of great character. His contributions to our community have helped many to lead better lives and become productive citizens. His wise counsel will be missed but not forgotten. God Bless you Judge Walker. Jerry Franklin

Phillip Walker was fine a gentleman as I have ever met, both as a lawyer and as a member of the community. He always had a kind word and a warm smile for me, and, although I rarely saw him of late, I will miss him greatly

It is with great sadness but fond memories that I read of the passing of the Honorable Philip S. Walker. Lawyer Walker was the very first attorney I met when I began my career in the Newport News Circuit Court Clerk's Office on February 5, 1971.
Over the years I had the privilege of dealing with Lawyer Walker on literally hundreds of occasions and there wasn't a time that he was not prepared, polite, courteous and thoroughly professional.
He was a true gentleman, a credit to the legal profession and a role model for the youth of our community.
Lawyer Walker was also an influential force during some tumultuous times on the peninsula and one of his legacies will be his advocacy for patience and understanding so long as it came with positive and continued progress.
Both the local legal profession and our community at large are immeasurably better off for Lawyer Walker having passed our way.
