Michael Anthony Walker passed away on October 19, 2026, at the age of 36. He was a beloved son, brother, and uncle, and a kind, gentle soul. Michael is survived by his mother, Valerie Dortch; his two sisters and one brother; and his one niece and three nephews.

Michael was neurodivergent, and he knew what he liked. He loved listening to music, watching movies, and settling in with a good documentary. And Michael loved to eat. A good meal was one of his favorite things.

More than anything, Michael wanted a girlfriend. He wanted someone to spend time with, someone to care for, and someone he could treat like a lady. He had been setting aside small gifts for the woman he hoped to meet someday. Those little gifts tell you something about Michael: he was already thinking about how to make her feel special.

Our family extends a special thank-you to Katrina at Love for Mankind. Thank you for looking out for Michael whenever he was in your care. It means more to us than we can say.

We’ll miss Michael’s funny ways and even the little things he did that got on our nerves. We’d give a lot to have him here doing those things again. He was too good for this world, and we pray he is finally at peace.

Rest peacefully, Michael. We love you, and we’ll miss you always.

The family
