Kenneth Eugene Walker

Kenneth “Ken” Eugene Walker, age 46, of Cedar Park, Texas, died on October 16, 2007. He was born on January 16, 1961 in Houston, Texas, to Jud Eugene Walker and Norma Gene Whetzel Walker. Ken was a traveler, having lived in Abilene, Austin, and Dallas, TX, Memphis, TN, and finally, back to his favorite location, Austin. He graduated from Cisco Junior College as a Licensed Vocational Nurse and attended Austin College taking business courses. Ken was currently self-employed; his immediate past employment was as a Senior Consultant (Senior level Coding Compliance Reviewer and Manager) for Care Communications, Inc. of Chicago, IL. He also worked with YPro Corp., Inc. of the University of Tennessee Medical Group, Memphis, TN, and MC Strategies, Inc. of Dallas, TX, among others. His work ethics were exemplary…he was proud of his accomplishments, but recently decided to add one more and that was to return to school to become an RN. God, family (especially his nieces and nephews), friends and travel were the most important in Ken’s life; he had very deep emotions toward them all. He enjoyed being outdoors, which included boating and swimming; he was also a lover of music and also had become very interested in family genealogy. His laughter and sense of humor were unique and contagious: he made everyone laugh, and it is what everyone will miss the most. Ken is survived by his sister, Deanna Taylor, and husband, Wayne Taylor, of Wichita Falls, TX, and their children, Susan Richardson and husband Brian Richardson, their son Jared Richardson, all of Bellevue, TX, and by Aaron Taylor of North Platte, NE and his daughter Caitlin Taylor of Archer City, TX; brother, Tom Walker and wife Sara of Kalamazoo, MI, their children Allison and Claire Walker, Tom’s children Trey Walker of Mesquite, TX, and Jessica Griswold of Abilene, TX; brother, Kelly Walker of Wichita Falls, TX, and half brother Shay Walker of Jacksboro, TX. Private family services will be held at the time of cremation on October 25th. In lieu of flowers, that family requests memorial contributions be made in Kenneth’s name to a charity of your choice.
