Obituary
Rosetta Walker was called home to glory on August 5, 2023. She was born on November 26, 1961, in Williamsburg, Virginia to John D. and Thelma Walker. Rosetta was a resident of Hiram Davis Medical Center (HWDMC) since infancy. She was alert, but non-verbal and enjoyed children’s music and communicated through giggles and visualizations. Rosetta loved listening to music and spending time with staff members and was very happy at Hiram Davis.
Ms. Walker was preceded in death by her parents, John D. and Thelma Walker; brothers; Napolean Walker, Dorothea Long, Jacqueline Parker, and Pamela Flyth. She leaves to cherish her memory, her, brothers, John Small, John D. Walker, Jr, sisters, Martha Scott, Francine Jones, and host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
Although Rosetta could not verbalize what she wanted to say, she commanded and ruled with her “expressive eyes” and facial expressions to gain your full attention.
Ms. Walker will be greatly missed by her relatives, and the HWDMC family.
