Throughout life, he went on to earn several degrees and accolades from pharmaceutical sales to real estate broker over the course of his life, making school counseling his chosen profession retiring in 2009 from Richmond County School System.

To my Uncle who will be greatly missed! I still remember our family Saturday morning and cartoons and wrestling shows and imitating The Junk Yard Dog. Uncle Clint was always there for his family and encouraged you to do better with yourself and with life. I know everytime I pass McDonald's I'll hear his voice saying, We got McDonald's at home. Love you Big Clint you will truly missed.

Thanks be to GOD for the life of Cousin Clint Walker. He touched the lives of both family and friends. He was present for the elders in the family and his immediate family.I recall after having knee surgery, he came and visited me, I am grateful. That's only one experience among so many. We need some more Clint Walkers. He had values and lived his faith through Jesus, the Christ.
Cousin Trent

Our grandmothers were sisters. He was both my cousin and my Omega Psi Phi fraternity brother. Of these I am extremely proud. I recall going to visit another relative in the hospital once, and Clint was already there. We stayed until visiting hours were over. He was the epitome of a family man, and he always made me feel like family. I will cherish my unwaveringly good memories of being in his presence. --Cousin Benjie

Clint, as the family called him, was an awesome person who was a dedicated family man, educator and entrepreneur. He was a person who provided sound advice especially when asked. He was an independent thinker. He was one of the patriarchs of the family. We will truly miss his encouraging words & compassion for humanity.
