Mr. Phillip Lamont Walk was born in Meridian, MS to the union of Lee Phillip Walk and Maxine Terrell-Walk on December 18, 1969. He dedicated his life to Christ and was baptized at Shiloh Baptist Church.
Phillip, affectionately called Mont by family and friends, received his education in the Lauderdale County School system where he graduated from Southeast High School in 1989. Throughout his I’ve, his free time was spent hunting, fishing and four-wheeling. Although he loved spending time outdoors, he also had a passion for cooking. He used every family gathering as an opportunity to show off his skills in the kitchen and on the barbecue grill. His love for the grill lead his to create his own secret recipes and a secret sauce that he loved sharing with people followed by the question “how does it taste?”. He took all of those tasty flavors with him and they will be truly missed. Lamont was also an avid gun collector. He collected various types of firearms and archery of which he was very proud.
Mont touched so many lives with his infectious smile and kind heart. He was a true friend to all he encountered and never met a stranger. He was always the one person in the room that could put a smile on anyone’s face with his awesome personality. He loved his immediate and extended family with all his heart and spent everyday of his life showing them that they were his complete focus. Lamont’s favorite station was K-Love. His heart was beyond big and he would give you the shirt off his back. He was the glue of the family and he truly only wanted to see everyone happy. Phillip was one of a kind and there will never be another like him.. He also cared for two special need children, Tristen Jenkins and Shelia Walk, who he loved dearly.
