Bob passed away peacefully on 7/8/21 surrounded by family. He is survived by the love of his life and wife of 39 years, Kathy Walker; his 5 married children, Kyle and Shellie Walker, Amy and Tim Smith, Kent and Stacey Walker, Shanin and Rick Nunley, and Ronnie and Lissa Walker; and his 10 grandkids, Rachel, Kurt, Ricky, Bailey, Cheyenne, Barrett, Braxton, Vance, Karra and Alissa.

Bob grew up in Tyler, TX, attended North Texas State University, had a long career with Gulf Oil Company followed by a second career as a Houston City Marshal.

Bob loved big and never met a stranger. His family was the center of his world. He loved being a Grandpa, traveling, dancing, hot-tubbing, 50's rock, vintage cars and food. He loved to joke and had lots of "Bobism" sayings that will live on through his grandkids who never took him up on his offer of a knuckle sandwich or a Hurts donut. He was loved by many.
