On February 10, 2021 Lloyd Walker, 92 of Hallsville, Texas traded in his cowboy hat and overalls for his halo and wings that are required for his new assignment. Although his work here on earth is done, his new position is guaranteed to be more fulfilling and rewarding than any before. His new mission includes a permanent relocation in a beautiful place where streets are paved with gold, angels sing amazing grace, and reunions with family and friends are certain.

Mr. Walker was born September 14, 1928 to Tom Walker and Edna Harp Walker. A lifetime resident of Hallsville, Lloyd grew up at Walker's Mill and began working at the saw mill with his daddy and brothers at a young age. He also worked for Walker Brother's Lumber Co. building houses with his brother Tom. Lloyd later went to work for Hallsville I.S.D. doing maintenance and driving a school bus where he retired. Of all the titles he held, his favorites were husband and father.  Lloyd married Nelva Hall on April 25, 1957 and together they raised two daughters, Janna and Cristie. Faith and Family, in that order, was the most important thing in his life.  His love for the Lord was apparent to everyone who crossed his path. We know that he accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior at a young age and he is now resting in the arms of the Father.

Lloyd was preceded in death by his mother and father, Tom and Edna Walker, wife Nelva Hall Walker, six brothers and two sisters. He is survived by Daughter Janna Goode and husband Jimmie; daughter Cristie Walker; sister Nadine Walker Jackson; grandson Lloyd Mullinnex and wife Emily; grandson Joshua Goode and wife Brianna; granddaughter Crystal Mullinnex Moughon; granddaughter Jordan Barnard; granddaughter Casey Dooley and husband Will; 14 great grandchildren, seven great- great- grandchildren, and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Jerry Neel, RN and the entire team at Texas Home Health Hospice.

Visitation will be Sunday February 14, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. at Mulberry Springs Baptist Church. The funeral service will follow immediately after at 3:00 p.m.
