Mr. Walker and children,
We hurt along with you. One of our angels have gone on to be with the Lord. Mrs. Walker was far more than a neighbor to us; she was a mother figure, spirtual advisor, counselor, friend, and like a nanna to our children. She will be missed ever so much. Only God can heals the wounds, dry the tears and comfort you when you loose someone so dear.. a wife, mother and dear friend. We are keeping you in our prayers.
