Chase Richard Wayne Walker

Chases’ life was one we hear about all too often. He was such a happy & loving soul that somehow got lost along the path to adulthood. He was a smart young fella full of life and laughter. Even in active addiction he still used the phrases “please, thank you, yes ma’am or no sir” when addressing his elders. His Texas family taught him that. He was always going to be a kid at heart. if there was a bad decision to be made, he was going to make it. But he always tried to make up for it. His smile and laughter were infectious. And more than anything, he truly did want to be something his daughters could be proud of. Chase will be forever in our hearts and memories and his daughters will always know, no matter how hard he struggled with addiction and life in general, that they were the most important things to him.
