I didn't know this was here!! I read all the things people have said to you and it makes me happy. You were the greatest man I have ever known. I learned so much from you. There are so many memories I hold dear in my heart and you know me and my stories....I talk about you at least once a day to someone, anyone! I want everyone I know to know you and to see what an amazing man you were. My sisters and I were very lucky to have you as our father. People are better people for having known you. I wish we had had more time, and I regret not using it at wisely as I should have,but I will never regret being your daughter. I am so thankful you were able to meet Rocky and give him your blessing to marry me. He holds your very short time knowing each other very dear to his heart. When you visit any of us in our dreams and talk to us like you're right next to us it means the world to us. Please don't ever stop visiting us. I love you so so much and miss you more than words can express. Thank you for loving me, teaching me, supporting and understanding me. HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!! Love you forever, Raindrop

I know it has taken me a long time to do this. I love you and miss you sooooo very much. It is so hard without you. I miss calling you to talk about stupid stuff. I miss hearing your laughter. Most of all I just miss my daddy. I'm sorry I was so angry with you. I hope that you know how much I really do love you. I have so many good memories and I will pass those onto my children. You will never be forgotten. I love you.

I called him Tom Teriffic!!! (from the cartoon). It just fit him, he was teriffic and I am so sad he is no longer here with us but I know he is at peace and watching over his darling children and grandchildren. Tom was so lucky to have Cindy and his girls and they will carry on bravely but will miss him terribly. My deepest sympathy...Janice

I will miss you very much, Tom. We had 18 good years and 3 amazing daughters. You were a good friend, husband and father. We will keep you alive in your grandchildren. I never stopped loving the Tom I fell in love with 30 years ago. until we meet again.....LB

Tom was infamous before I ever came to Midland.... Sam spoke of him with fondness quite often. It seemed as if this Tom Walker was a brother instead of just a friend. I could tell Sam loved him with an unconditional type of love that is very rare today. It was an honor for me to meet Tom's three daughters and Cindi and John. I wish I could have gotten to know Tom, on better terms, and someday that meeting will take place, I'm sure. As we, laughed and cried in the hospital those couple of days I could see how incredibly lucky Tom was- his "family" stood by him and loved him until the end of this life. Beyond this life I could tell that he will live on in the hearts and minds of everyone he touched. I hope that when my time comes to leave this earth that I will be loved as much as he. His girls are such precious human beings and Cindi and John accomplished something that I'm not sure I could do. I send my sincere sympathy for your loss. I could tell your dad was a great man that will be missed.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

These are some of the reasons I am grateful for having known Tom Walker. I don't know what I would have done without him and Cindy when I was pregnant with Becky or when my ex, John died. Some of the good times I remember were hanging out at Tom and Cindy's on Field Street, going to Santa Fe Junction (when Cindy twisted her ankle on her shoe), driving around with a car full of people singing "Red Skies at Night" and going to the Deep Purple concert in Dallas. Tom was a very loving, generous and cool guy. He had so many friends but they are now scattered all over. I believe every last one of them will feel empty when they find out he has left this earth. He always knew how to make people feel special-but didn't seem to know how special he was to everyone. Love you and see ya later Tom Walker! Your friend, Syl

I love you daddy and always will. I know that your body was tired and needed to go home, and I also know that your soul will live on forever within my heart. We were so close, and I will never forget the times that we shared. We had such a close bond, and I learned so many things from you. You were my "best daddy" and always will be. I know that I will see you in my dreams. xoxoxo Dew

We were great friends Tom. More like brothers really! I was there for you and you were there for me. We had some great times together and apart. Thank you for making your family part of my family. I will be here for them as I was for you. I'll love you always.
