WALKER, Juanita Alkazin, 79, was born in Edgecombe County in North Carolina on January 17, 1942 to Linda K. Alkazin and Mitchell D. Alkazin. Her parents were merchants in the small farming community of Scotland Neck, North Carolina. She is preceded in death by her parents as well as her brother, David Mitchell. Juanita (known growing up as "Nita") graduated from a Business Course at Woman's College in Greensboro, North Carolina. She met the love of her life during that year. Michael Robert Walker, Sr. was attending Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. They were married on September 1, 1963 and had two sons, Michael, Jr. and Kyle Walker. She is survived by her two sons; their wives, Heather and Jennifer; and grandchildren, Maeve, Eammon, Caden, and Sean. Juanita was raised next door to a Catholic Mission Church in her hometown. Her parents cared for the small church since the Pastor lived 20 miles away. It was no surprise to her friends that she spent much of her life working for the Catholic Church. She was the Administrative Assistant at Church of Epiphany in Chesterfield County during its formation years and later helped form St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church in Glen Allen. She gave herself the name "Church Lady". She loved her work with God's people from all over Richmond and the world. She was a published author, beloved friend to her IS Sisters at church, a vibrant member of her church family, and a doting grandmother or "Sitte" as was her preferred Lebanese moniker. Service information to come.
