Obituary For Wallace Albert Honer

Wallace Albert Honer was born on August 30, 1961, in Palatka, Florida, to the late Edgar Honer, Sr. and Mary Alice Honer. He departed this life on October 8, 2026, at the age of 65.

Wallace attended Palatka High School, where he graduated in 1979. He proudly served in the United States Navy from 1980 to 2002 as a Corpsman. After retiring from the United States Navy, he began working at Parkview Community Hospital as a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN). During his employment, he earned two Bachelor of Science degrees in Nursing and Healthcare Management in May 2017 and became a Registered Nurse that same year. He served patients at Parkview Community Hospital for over 20 years. In total he devoted over 40 years to nursing and caring for patients.

Wallace was a true military man. He always spoke with everyone in the family about the resources and benefits the military had to offer. He successfully facilitated countless VA benefit-related applications for family members through completion. He loved listening to music, dancing with his wife, jogging, doing yard work, and traveling, but most of all, he loved spending time with his family. He also loved rainy weather, especially since Southern California did not get much of it. He always came home to Florida during hurricane season.

While Wallace enjoyed watching all sports, hockey was his favorite. The Toronto Maple Leafs were his favorite hockey team, and the Miami Dolphins were his favorite NFL team.

Wallace was a Christian whose beautiful smile and dimples were impossible to overlook. Whenever you saw Wallace, you could not help but notice them. He valued family above everything and had a special passion for helping others. Giving was indeed his love language. He was never boastful, just an extremely kind and humble man. He had an undeniable positive attitude. Despite his health condition, during the last few months of his life, he began taking classes to receive an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse degree.

Wallace was preceded in death by his father, Edgar Honer, Sr.; his mother, Mary Alice Honer; his brothers, Edgar Honer, Jr. and Ronald Honer; and his sister, Vanessa Honer.

He leaves to cherish his memory his loving wife, Letty G. Honer; his children, Karen Honer and Katrina Honer (Jacob); his siblings, Arthur Honer (Twanya), Juanita Oxendine, Larry Honer, Claudette Honer, Calvin Honer, Pamela Honer, Reginald Honer (Justice), and Terri Lisa Smith (Michael); his sister-in-law, Sheree Honer and his family.

Wallace was laid to rest with full military honors at Riverside National Cemetery in California.
