Obituary

July 17, 1952 - July 3, 2024

R. Cameron "Cam" Walker, beloved son of Glen Harris Walker and Willa Rae Erickson, was born on July 17, 1952, in Raymond, Alberta, Canada. He passed away in Valley Village, California, leaving a legacy of love, faith, and service that touched countless lives.

Cam attended Brigham Young University. He was called to serve a mission in France for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1971.

Cam married the love of his life, Patricia Clinger Walker, on May 30, 1975. Together, they built a loving family and shared a lifelong commitment to their faith and community.

Cam was a man of many talents and accomplishments. He was musically gifted, playing the trumpet, bagpipes, and piano, and was known for his rich bass voice. He performed on various shows, in the entertainment industry and was part of the original cast of Saturday's Warrior. Additionally he was one of the early dancers that helped popularize locking that ultimately evolved into pop locking and breakdancing. Cam's athleticism was equally impressive; he played basketball competitively for over 50 years and was known as "The Snake" on the court for his elusive skill and agility. Professionally, Cam spent 40+ years in the financial planning industry. He delighted in helping families with their financial portfolio and was very generous with his time.

Cam also devoted his life to serving others. He held numerous leadership positions within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including serving as a bishop twice and as the Stake President of the North Hollywood Stake for nine years and recently was called to be a Sealer in the Los Angeles Temple. He was instrumental as one of the board of directors, working with world leaders to forge alliances and negotiations of peace between Israel and other countries. His commitment to his faith was evident in his tireless service and the countless lives he touched through his ministry.

Cam was a fantastic father and grandpa to his posterity. He never missed any of their special events. He was so proud of all of his children and grandchildren listed below:

- Daniel Cameron Walker

- Macen and Jaylen

- James Aaron and Amanda Walker

- Shayleigh, James, Rudy, Kingston, and Sterling

- Aimee Patricia and Jimmy Jepson

- Callie, Kaiden, Brian, Justin, and Donovan

- Gretchen Hanson and Abraham Knell

- Zach and Sierra, Sadie, McKay, and Lucy

Cam's life was marked by his dedication to his family, his strong faith, and his unwavering service to others. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. God be with you until we meet again!
