Nancy C. Walker
05/03/1950 — 11/28/2005
From Richland, WA, US | Born in Richland, Washington
Nancy C. Walker
Nancy C. Walker, 55, passed away suddenly on Monday November 28, 2005 as a result of a blockage to the heart. Nancy was born on May 3, 1950 and was a lifelong resident of Richland, WA. Nancy attended Christ the King Elementary School and moved on to graduate from Richland High School. Nancy married Alan Walker in 1969. Together they raised their three children Brian, Karen, and Michael in a warm and loving home. Nancy worked for CH2M Hill for many years and had just started a new career at PNNL. Nancy was an amazing woman who was full of life and love for her family, friends, and others who were blessed to have come into her life.
Nancy is survived by her parents Emery and Ann Casey, husband Alan Walker, children Brian, Karen, and Michael, brother and sister in-law Paul and Kathy Casey, nephews Adam and Marcus Casey and all her friends throughout the years. She is in heaven now, but she will be deeply missed by all those left behind who knew her.
There will be a viewing at Einans Funeral Home Friday December 2 from 4:00-7:00 pm followed by a rosary vigil starting at 7:00 pm. The funeral will be held at Christ the King church on Saturday December 3 at 11:00 am followed by a graveside service at Sunset Memorial Gardens. A reception for family and friends will be held following the graveside service.
Words are not enough to describe the feeling of loss in my heart. Nancy was such a special person, never without a smile and never without time to give. I’ll treasure the memories of years past during childhood visits and as adults when we shared dinners, card games and lots of laughs. The thought just came to my mind this week it was almost time to get her Christmas letter sharing her family’s news for the past year. Nancy will be missed sorely by her family forever, but also by many of us that were not in daily contact with her. She was a gentle, kind spirit with a huge heart.
I love you Nancy-
Renee
Psalm 16:11
“You have made known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.”
To the Walker family, I send my sincere sympathy. I worked with Nancy on the plant and we always exchanged recipes. She gave me one of her dip recipes and I still make it. My prayers are with you all during this trying time. Nancy was a great gal!
God’s blessings to all.
Dear Al and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I had not met Nancy, but I could see the sparkle in Al’s eyes when he talked about her. The pictures in this memorial give testimony to the joy she had within herself and what she shared with her family and others.
The Lord has her in his house now, but there is no doubt she will still be watching over each of you. God bless you all.
Al, although I did not know Nancy, I want to express my sympathy to you and your family. The photos of her on this memorial website portray a warm, beautiful person. I am so sorry for your tremendous loss.

While I didn’t know Nancy, I do know Al, and have appreciated his love and respect for his wife. She must have been a great lady to inspire such devotion. I extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to you at your loss of this vital, loving woman.
My deepest sympathy to Nancy’s family. I worked with Nancy for a couple years with CH2M HILL and enjoyed her sincerity and charm. She had a wonderful and caring spirit about her that will be dearly missed. God Bless All of You!
Al, Brian, Karen, and Michael,
I am so sorry and shocked by this news. Nancy, was always so full of life, and so very proud of her children. She was fun to be around and I am sure will be missed by everyone who knew her.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
My sincere condolences to the Walker family upon the loss of Nancy Walker. Let us hope there is some divine reason for taking Nancy, wife and mother, so early in life. May she rest in peace.
Except my thoughts for your family of this great loss.
I was fortunate enough to work with Nancy at CH2M HILL and personally know her. She was a remarkable person. She was very positive, personable and pleasant person.
God Bless you
Dear Alan & Family,
Steve and I are were so shocked and deeply saddened to hear of Nancy’s passing. Though we didn’t know her well, except for a few times golfing, we will remember her as a very friendly, caring person. Her outgoing personality and beautiful smile will be missed. Alan,you and your children are in our thoughts and prayers. May the love of God, family and friends bring you peace during this difficult time. Sincerely, Steve and Tracy Witeck
Al and family, our condolences to all of you. Nancy was a dear friend and we have many delightful memories of her. She and Al are truly two of the friends we care most about and she will be greatly and truly missed.
She was the consumate organizer in our bridge group and one of our best times ever was our trip this summer to Toppenish for golf and bridge. No one but Nancy could have put that together and made it a great time for everyone.
I didn’t know Nancy very well because I’m one of the older cousins. I remember her as a very quiet little girl with a fun loving spirit. My heart goes out to the family.
Al and family,
Where do I begin to tell you how sorry I am for your loss? I didnt know Nancy for a long time, but in the few short weeks that I did spend with her, I came to love her and respect her very much. She was so enthusiastic about starting this new job and working at PNNL. We were so very lucky to have had her even if the time was far too short. I feel very blessed to have been able to get to know her. My prayer for you and your family is that in time, your fond memories of Nancy will bring you comfort and maybe even a smile. I pray that God will give you and your family comfort and eventually, peace. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.
Knowing my words can do little to ease your pain; I still wanted to share my deepest sympathy over the loss of your dear wife/mother/daughter. I can only imagine the impact her passing must have on you and your family. I hope and pray that God provides each of you great comfort and peace at this time. I also pray that His strength and courage are mightily at work in each of your lives.
Dear Al, Brian, Karen, and Micheal,
I can’t tell you how sorry I am to hear about Nancy and her sudden passing. I still have all the memories of coming to your house to visit, playing ping pong, talking golf, and she was a big part of all of that. I always felt so welcome and that was because Nancy and the rest of you always made me feel welcome. It was always a warm place to come to and that reflected the type of person Nancy was and the type of family you are.
She will be dearly missed and all of my thoughts and prayers will be with all of you.
Sincerly,
Ben
Nancy and I worked together at ORP for several years; she was a dear friend and a patient mentor. She will be sorely missed. To her family, my sincere condolences. My mother passed suddenly a few years ago and the shock and pain is immense, I’m so sorry. Someone told me at her funeral to give myself a year and a day and when that time came I’d be on the way to being okay again, I’m certainly not the same, and not a day goes by that I don’t think of her just as you will but a year and a day later I was better and the pain not so immense. Remember the good times, speak her name, laugh because she taught you that; don’t hide her because it hurts, rejoice in the legacy she left you. May you find comfort in the darkest moments that are before you; stay close to each other, and know that she loved you all very much, she was very proud of each of you, be well. With love, Karen
I wish to share my condolences with Nancy’s family. It’s been several years since Nancy and I worked together, however, I will always remember her as a true friend and lovely human being. I know how much she loved her family and how she felt that her place in life was to be there for them. She was truly a person that you could look to as a role model, both at work, as a mother, and as a wife and friend.
Al and Family: I never met your wife, but after seeing her picture, I know I would like her. I am so sorry that your wife/mother has been taken so early.
