Patricia "Pat" Alyce Walker (Martin), age 75, passed away peacefully at home on April 28, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.

Pat was born on March 21, 1951, in Ontonagon, Michigan, to Ivan and Alice Martin. She grew up rooted in the values of family, kindness, and hard work that would define her life.

On October 5, 1968, Pat married the love of her life, Alfred "Jerry" Walker. Together they built a beautiful life and raised two children, sharing 57 years of marriage filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.

Pat dedicated many years of her professional life as a surgical technologist, working at St. Vincent and Aurora Hospitals in Green Bay, Wisconsin. She took great pride in her work and the care she provided to others.

Outside of her career, Pat found joy in the simple and meaningful moments of life. She spent many happy hours sewing quilts alongside her best friend, Joy, and with the ladies of her quilting club. She had a deep love for dancing and delighted in teaching others, always encouraging everyone to join in. A true country music fan, Pat especially adored Alan Jackson-her admiration for his music was well known and fondly remembered.

Pat also loved traveling to Nashville, making trips twice a year to enjoy music and dancing. Above all, she treasured time spent with her husband, children, and grandchildren, creating lasting memories that her family will carry forward.

She is lovingly survived by her husband, Alfred "Jerry" Walker; her daughter, Kristine (Randy) Hibbs; and her son, Jerome "AJ" (Melissa) Walker. She was a proud grandmother to Ja-Nai Hibbs, Addyson Hibbs (fiancé Mike Maile), Jack Walker, Audrey Walker, and Jonah Walker.

Pat is also survived by her brothers, Jim (Lorraine) Martin and John (Colette) Martin; and her in-laws, Carol (Don) Miilu, John (Eunice) Walker, Judy Ashby, and Robert (Janine) Walker.She was preceded in death by her parents, Ivan and Alice Martin; her stepfather, Jack Reynolds; Sue (Phil) Broadhead; Gail (Hubert) Immonen, Anita (Carl) Pantti, Murnie (Steve) Roberts, Arthur and Marion Walker and Tim Walker.

Pat will be remembered for her warmth, her love of music and dancing, her creativity, and her unwavering devotion to her family. Her legacy lives on in the many lives she touched and the memories she helped create.

Visitation is to commence at 10am Saturday, May 9, at Holy Family Church in Ontonagon with Memorial Mass to follow at 11am.
