PHOENIX – Scott Claire Walker 43, of Phoenix, Arizona passed away December 12, 2019. Scott had a strong faith and after a valiant battle with the disease of addiction, he went in peace to be with his Lord and Savior.

Scott was born on July 26, 1976 at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix, Arizona and was the son of Nancy and Jimmy Walker. He was the youngest of three children with Laurie and Jennifer, his beloved older sisters.

Scott was a strong competitiv­e tennis player who played in USTA tournament­s and was highly ranked in the Southwest. He was an avid outdoorsma­n, fisherman and hunter who especially loved the sport of basketball.

Scott attended Brophy College Preparator­y High School.

Scott was a top products specialist helping his clients solve complex problems. He worked hard to become an excellent financial advisor achieving his ChFC and CLU. He and his father worked together for many years at Walker Financial.

Scott had a keen sense of humor and vibrant personalit­y. He had a heart to help others in need. He was loved by all his family and particular­ly liked being “Uncle Scott” to his nieces and nephews.
