缅北禁地

The 缅北禁地 community is saddened by the loss of Kevin Walker, director of the Print & Copy Center, who passed away recently. He was a longtime staff member who also served as a volunteer assistant coach for the Avenging Angels basketball team.

Walker made a major impact on Meredith students through his role as assistant coach of the basketball team. He served in this capacity from 2007 through the 2024-25 season under four head coaches.

Head Coach Megan Rahn said it was hard to put into words what Walker meant to the basketball team and 缅北禁地.

鈥淗e was the heartbeat of our team, and he touched so many people on our campus,鈥� said Rahn, who knew Walker when she was a player on the team through to her current role as coach.聽

Rahn said that she has heard from numerous people in the past week about Walker.

鈥淗e was the epitome of everything you鈥檇 want in an assistant coach, including as a stand-in dad for players who were away from their families,鈥� Rahn said. 鈥淗e cared for us and looked out for us. His role in our lives went far beyond the basketball court.鈥�

In his professional role, Walker managed a variety of projects for departments across the Meredith campus. The Print & Copy Center handles all forms of professional in-house printing.聽

Walker鈥檚 colleagues praised him for his professionalism and thoughtfulness.

鈥淜evin was a great partner to the Marketing Department. He was kind, thoughtful, and always there for us,鈥� said Director of Visual Communications Vanessa Harris. 鈥�He was a great steward of the College brand and helped our department do our jobs well.鈥�

In 2006, Walker received the Presidential Staff Award in recognition of exemplary service to the Meredith community.

Funeral services were held on July 29 at St. Augusta Missionary Baptist Church in Fuquay-Varina, N.C.
