Sheila Margaret
Walker
Sheila Margaret Walker,
beloved wife, mother, and
grandmother, passed away
Jan. 1, 2024, in Peachtree
City, at the age of 86.
She was born on July
30, 1937, in Halifax, Ca
nada, and her remarkable
life was filled with love,
dedication, and countless
cherished memories.
Throughout her career,
Sheila served as an ex
ecutive secretary for Delta,
demonstrating her excep
tional organizational skills
and commitment to excel
lence. However, her true
passion in life was caring
for her beloved husband
and children. Sheila's self
less nature knew no
bounds, and she dedicated
herself wholeheartedly to
creating a nurturing and
loving home for her family.
In her leisure time,
Sheila found joy in travel
ing and exploring new
places. Whether it was em
barking on exciting adven
tures or simply spending
quality time with her
grandchildren, she treas
ured every moment shared
with loved ones. Her nur
turing spirit and genuine
love brought immense hap
piness to those around her.
Sheila will be deeply
missed by her adoring hus
band, Johnny Walker, who
shared a lifetime of love
and companionship with
her. She is also survived by
her sons, Randy (Donna),
Gary (Lisa), Wayne (Bar
bara), and Alan (Tina)
Walker, who will forever
carry the lessons of love
and devotion that their
mother instilled in them.
Her memory will con
tinue to live on through her
cherished grandchildren,
Brittney, Tiffany, Lacye,
Lindsay, Courtney, Cody,
Collin, and Chaney; great
grandchildren, Brooks,
Luke, and Brett. The joy
Sheila experienced in being
a grandmother was im
measurable, and she took
great pride in nurturing
and guiding each one of
them.
Sheila leaves behind her
sister, Barbara Thomas, as
well as many other family
members and friends who
were fortunate enough to
have known her kindness
and grace.
A memorial service to
celebrate Sheila's remark
able life will be hosted by
her family at a later date to
be determined. This gath
ering will be a time of fond
remembrance and shared
stories, as loved ones come
together to honor the beau
tiful soul that Sheila was.
As we say farewell to
Sheila Margaret Walker, let
us remember her as an in
spiration to all who knew
her. Her unwavering love,
dedication, and zest for life
will forever be an example
for us to follow. May her
soul rest in eternal peace.
We welcome you to pro
vide your condolences,
thoughts, and memories on
our Tribute Wall.
