Lynne Walker, wife of Cornel Walker, '65
Our cherished wife and mother, Lynne Walker, entered the Kingdom of Heaven on Saturday, November 24, 2007, following a life of love and laughter. Lynne was born on March 15, 1948, to Mary Mandeville Rakestraw and Major John William Rakestraw. After graduating from Schertz-Cibolo High School (Class of '67), Lynne joyously embraced motherhood and family with her beloved husband Cornel, raising her children, John Koch and Laura Koch Matula, and his children, Stephen Walker and Shannon Walker. Lynne was a member of St. Luke's Episcopal Church and served her Lord through a generous spirit shared with all she met. Lynne was predeceased by her parents and her infant grandson, Jack Cook. She is mourned by her devoted husband Cornel, and children John, Laura, Stephen and Shannon, son-in-law Jon, sister Diana Williams, parents-in-law Craig and Lynette Walker Allen (YES, our Mrs. Walker, Counselor at RHS), and four adored grandchildren, Hannah, Lindsey and Madisyn Matula, and Brodie Walker. Our lives have been blessed by her goodness and inspired by her courage. Friends are invited to sign Lynne's guestbook at http://www.porterloring.com/ and share memories in celebration of her life.
