Services for Bryson McKay Walker of Wesson are Saturday, June 9, 2022, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saint, Red Star Ward with burial at Red Star Cemetery.

Bryson McKay Walker, 19, passed away July 4, 2022. He was born November 23, 2002, to his parents, William T. Walker, Jr. and Andrea Renea Walker.

Bryson was a joy to raise and a joy to be around. Although sick from birth, Bryson overcame so many that prompted his dad to want to change his middle name to Miracle,

which his mom refused, and Bryson thanked her for that daily. Bryson struggled with many things that people knew nothing about.

He overcame many things that no one thought he ever would. Everyday Bryson woke up with one thing on his mind, he wanted to make someone’s life easier,

even at the expense of his own health. The love he had for strangers, family members and friends were incomprehensible. His mom and he was very close,

and he would share most things with her but wouldn’t anyone else to know the things he did to help others. He was a friend to all a confident,

the best secret keeper, the most amazing brother to his five siblings, the absolute best son and grandson and the very best hugger.

Bryson was a 2022 graduate of Loyd Star High School. He loved his class, and he loved the school and his teachers, but most of all, he loved the football team.

He was most happy when he was on the field. He was a great player but was an even better teammate and leader. He never talked down to the younger players

but built them up. He had an indescribable passion for the game. He enrolled in college the Wednesday before he died. He built his first computer when he was 14

and was excited to start the Computer Cyber Security Program next month. He had a lot of good things happening for him. He and his mom went shopping Wednesday

after enrolling in classes at Co-lin and went shopping where he was discovered by American Eagle and offered a chance to model for them calling him handsome and

All American. That described him perfect. Bryson started working at Wal-Mart in May. He worked in the grocery pickup, and he had never been happier.

He loved his job so much and loved his co-workers.

He made instant permanent bonds that will go on forever. He loved being and uncle and bragged that no one had prettier kids than his nephews and specially his niece.

Bryson’s brothers were his best friends, especially Brantley, who most people though was his twin.

Preceding him in death are his grandpa, Roy Nations and MeMe, Joann Walker.

Those left to cherish his memory are his parents, Billy and Renea Walker; grandparents, Sandra Nations and Bill Walker;

brothers, Benton Walker and wife, Alessandra, Braedon Walker, Brantley Walker; sisters, Ashlan Olmstead and husband, Alex, Alexis Grihalva and husband, Matthew;

nephews, Peyton, Maddox, and Jameson Olmstead; Blake and Caleb Walker, and Aston Grihalva (due in a few weeks) and niece, Riley Walker.

    So sorry to hear about Bryson. My Son Coach Ben Hughes was telling me about this young man he said he was a joy to Coach in School.
