Charles was born on July 3, 1933 in North Battleford Sk. and was the youngest child of Hector and Mary Walker. Charles loved travelling, specifically driving the back grid-roads of Saskatchewan to obscure destinations.  If there was a hand- built stone wall, crooked grove of trees, or Doukhobor caves in the riverbank, he knew where these places were and could tell you how to get there. He was known for his jovial personality and ability to talk to anyone and make them smile. During his life, he was a member of the Battlefords Cross country ski club, Hamlin Community Club and Old time Dance club. Over the years, Charles made many friends and acquaintances while managing L&M Wood Products, North Battleford office. He also loved farm life and actively farmed for many years in the Hamlin District. He also spent countless hours keeping the Acreage weed free and looking like it should be in a gardening magazine.  Charles will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

Donations in memory of Charles may be made to LRHF (LCC Patient Comfort).

Arrangements were in care of McCaw Funeral Services Ltd Lloydminster.
