Mordecai Walker lived a tremendous life as a distinguished centenarian and Lifetime Member of the NAACP. He left a legacy resplendent with his indelible footprints in education, social justice, religious stewardship, leadership and humanitarian achievements. If only we could walk in his shoes and carry his banner of accomplishments to The Throne of Glory for over a century; remarkable and exceptionally well done. The officers and members of the NAACP stand in unison in recognizing your contributions to your family, fraternity, church and community.

Mr.Walker was my fourth grade teacher at Perkins Elementary, he had such a great influence on me and many others. What a great role model, after 60 years of being out of his class he vividly remembered me, when I saw him at the grocery store.
Rest in Peace and power What a great Qmega man was he.
