Ernest Wayne Walker, Age 66
The sum of a hero’s life in so many words:
A man with skilled hands always hard at work, joyful heart full of music and song
Painter of the landscapes he loved, he showed us the outdoors where we belong
Tireless thinker and solver of puzzles, with his help it won’t go wrong
A man of few words with a love for laughter, we cannot be sad for long
A humble and wonderful man whom God treasured enough to take along
