    • Obituary:

      WALKER, JOHN RANDALL, 86, died Wednesday, December 19, 2007. He was at home and died peacefully in his sleep while surrounded by his loving family. John, a third generation Floridian, was born in Miami in 1921. He served his country with pride and humility as a Technical Sergeant in the Aleutian Islands during World War II. He worked tirelessly for Graybar Electric Company from 1952 to 1984, but always made time with his family, the centerpiece of his life. He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Margaret Ann, his daughters Janet Parker, Merrilee Walker, Kathleen Glickman, and Susan Barrows; his sons-in-law Larry, Raymond, Tommy; his six grandchildren Chahine, her spouse Jere, Jacob, Eric, Kristen, Brian, and Rachel; and his four great-grandchildren Sierra, Reed, Alexander, and Cody. John was an avid gardener and golfer, a superb cook, and an amateur painter who prided himself on being active and involved with those around him. He celebrated his devotion and love for his family with everything he did, from camping trips and home- cooked meals to his yearly role as Santa Claus. His honesty and integrity made him our teacher and inspiration; his warmth, humor, and boyish grin made him our joy. He gave his love and trust without reservation and inspired love and trust in all those who knew him. In accordance with his wishes, his family will spread his ashes "over God's green earth" and gather to honor his memory. He will be missed.
