Condolences for the family of “Herbert Walker Jr”
To my Aunt Clarice, Gale, Barbara, Randy and Andy, your significant others and all members of the Walker family I offer you my deepest condolences and pray that you all have strong faith in the resurrection hope that the Bible holds out for Uncle Walker. Jehovah God is a loving God and does not like to see people hurt. God created the earth to be inhabited and it will be. Once all of the wickedness has been destroyed God’s Kingdom will rule and just think of all the ones that we have lost in death we will see them again including my dear Uncle. Please know that I love you all so much and am thinking of you constantly. When I come to Columbus I want bear hugs from all of you. I love each and every one of you and I’m praying that you will be as strong as you can be and lean on each other. Special recognition to Gale Warren, she took on an incredible amount of responsibility getting her parents packed up and with the help of her brother Andy moved back to Columbus.
Hugs and love.
