With hearts broken wide open, our family shares the unexpected death of a precious father, son, brother, grandfather, uncle, and friend, Larry Walker. Larry passed away on January 5, 2026.
Larry Dean Walker was born in Sidney, MT to loving parents, Marlene (Martin) Walker Kelly and Bucky J Walker on November 20, 1961, a notable seven minutes before his twin brother and lifelong best friend, Lonny Walker. Larry and Lonny, along with their older and younger sisters, Lori (Cadwell) and Lynae (King), respectively, moved with their family and spent their childhoods in Bozeman.
The Walker family suffered a great loss in 1979 when Larry’s father, Buck, passed away suddenly on a hunting trip. It was always important to Larry to continue to share tales about his dad, especially to all the family who never had the opportunity to know him. After the family welcomed Don Kelly into their fold, Larry moved to Florida and later to Tennessee to work alongside Lonny, Don, and Don’s sons, Jassen, Todd, and Ty in the family business. In 1985, Larry married Lisa (Schumacher).
Together, they had three children, Cameron, Chloe, and Gabriel, and created a beautiful and full life for their family. Though the marriage ended after 33 years, they remained colleagues and good friends. Larry and Jennifer Duncan courted and eventually married in 2021. The two later divorced.
