Our deepest sympathy goes out to the entire walker family. I liked bowling in leagues that Jim bowled in he was always friendly and a real good bowler. He will always be remembered by all the people he came in contact with and as a veteran myself I salute Jim for his service to his country.

Signe,
Ruth and I were shocked and saddened to hear this news, please accept our deepest condolences on Jim's passing.
I first got to meet Jim years ago while competing against ( and usually losing ) to him in several Classic Leagues in the Tampa area.
Jim had an easy going manner and I seldom saw him without a smile; we quickly became friends. It didn't matter if either of us bowled well, we always found a way to share a laugh or to celebrate the moment.
And that's the way I'm going to remember Jim, as one of those rare people who's mere presence could lighten any moment and brighten any situation, even one as difficult as this. ...
Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.
Ruth and I are but a stones throw away so please don't hesitate to call on us if there's anything we can do to help now.
