"What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch. We may not understand why you left this earth, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget". Words can't express our sadness. May the comfort of God help us through this difficult time. May loving memories ease our loss and bring us comfort, knowing that someone so special will never be forgotten. You was a mother, sister, grandmother etc. but you was my ANGEL. You will be miss.

Mrs. Walker was our neighbor on Otis Place 12 years ago. We will always remember how feisty she was, her love for her Family and friends. She was always out doing something and we loved her for her drive and friendship. Hope that we can live a life as full as hers and will always remember how kind and welcoming she was. Our deepest sympathy to the family on the loss of a great woman. John Pascazio and Brian Friend (926 Otis place)

Mrs. Walker was my grandmother's best friend and our second grandmother. We have enjoyed many visits to her home and former church in N.W. Washington. Our last visit with her in her home in Clinton was very precious to us. Her daughter Shirley made us feel very welcomed. Our Condolences to all of the family. Frank & Frances Watson.

To the Walker family, I never met someone so sweet and kind. Mama Walker took me in as one of her own daughters when I was a teenager in college with my dear friend Lorraine. I will always cherish the memories of her loving and caring spirit towards me. May God keep, strengthen and grant you peace and comfort as you continue on. Thank you for sharing your mom with me.
