February 25, 1957 — April 1, 2021
Stephen Duane Walker, age 64, of Phoenix, Arizona passed away unexpectedly on April 1, 2021 at his home.
Steve was born on February 25, 1957 at Ripon Memorial Hospital, in Ripon, Wisconsin. He was the son of Dale and Dolores (Resheski) Walker. Steve graduated from Green Lake High School in 1975 and went on to receive his Bachelor’s degree in Computer Systems Analysis and devoted his career to improving his skills. Steve knew you could never stop learning and he was a lifetime student. Steve was also a lifetime adventurer.
Steve loved to travel and spent as much time as possible with his daughter, Allison Walker. In his younger years, he was an avid outdoorsman, backpacking and camping throughout Arizona. He also enjoyed skydiving, walked a 1000-stair marathon, drove a motorcycle, and was a responsible firearms owner. Whenever he was able to, he would come home to Wisconsin to spend time with his family and friends.
Steve always had time to help a friend and volunteered as a foster child advocate for Court Appointed Special Advocates. Steve loved to write stories about his daughter as she was growing up and would send newsletters every month to his family in Wisconsin about the adventures she had, the things she was learning and the times they spent together. He was a very proud father.
