SNOW CAMP - Joseph Kent Walker of Snow Camp, N.C., died at home on Aug. 16, 2012 at 8:30 a.m. Born in Graham, N.C. in 1941, the eldest son of Ebb and Sybil Walker, Kent graduated from Graham High School.
Married for thirty-nine years to Ellen Keenan Walker, they had one daughter. A U.S. Army veteran, he lived most of his adult life in Alamance County, working as a heavy equipment operator with Walker Brothers Grading and landscaping at Pureflow, Inc. In 2008, he was honored with the Business Beautification Appearance Award for Alamance County and treasured every moment spent outdoors. In his later years, Kent found his greatest joy in caring for his yard and garden and spending time with his loved ones.

Kent left numerous extended family members to mourn his loss: aunts, nieces and nephews, cousins, friends, neighbors and the Fish House Gang.
