Jimmy Edgar Walker, age 92, of Winchester, passed away on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. He was born on December 3, 1933, in Nashville, Tennessee, to the late James D. and Gladys R. (Harris) Walker.

Jimmy was a devoted educator who spent more than thirty-seven years teaching and making learning enjoyable for his students. His dedication extended beyond the classroom, as he also spent time coaching basketball after school.

Over the years, he served as a minister or song leader at Owl Hollow Church of Christ, Oak Grove Church of Christ, Bethel Church of Christ, and Milford Road Church of Christ. He most recently attended Huntland Church of Christ.
