Obituary

I was born February 25, 1972 to the precious Ruthie B. Matthews in Cleveland, MS.  My Christian walk began as a child at Apostolic Faith Church where I was baptized in Jesus Name by the late Bishop Longino Davis according to Acts 2:38.  My growth and walk with Christ continued under the leadership of Pastor Terry Jones.

I was a student if B.L. Bell Bulldogs in Boyle, MS and Nailor Elementary School in Cleveland, MS.  I attended Eastwood Jr. High School for middle school and a proud student of East Side High Trojans where I played football for short period of time.  In 1994, I married the beautiful Temecca Walker and made her Mrs. Matthews.  We shared six children together.

I was proceeded in death by my mother, Ruthie Matthews, my sister Bernice Matthews, grandmothers Caldonia Matthews and Lena Williams, and my son Cordarious "Buck-Eye" Walker, on January 17, 2020.  I departed this earthly home at 11:00 a.m. at Methodist University Hospital in Memphis, TN.

My memories shall live on in the lives of my beloved wife Temecca Matthews of Cleveland, MS, two sons, Zachary Walker (Zack) of Myersville, MS and Jamarcus Walker (De) of Boyle, MS; three daughters, Shaquavious Walker(Nikki), K'April Walker both of Cleveland, MS, and Sonja Wilson of Boyle, MS; two sisters, Veronica Matthews of Cleveland, MS and De'Contessa Williams of Chicago, IL; two brothers, Michael Matthews of Memphis, TN and James Williams of Chicago, IL, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and a best friend, Lorenzo White.  I would say a host, but the Lord blessed me and my wife twenty grandchildren and counting.
