Mr. George Walker was a great friend of the Skelley family. I always enjoyed talking to him whenever our families were together. George was a respected man of integrity and strength of character I admired. He was an astute and trusted business man who ran an outstanding company and as a veteran he understood service to God and our country he loved. We will miss him very much and send our heartfelt condolences to Peggy and the entire Walker family. Bill and Karen Skelley
