Lillian "Marsha" Walker, 72, of Saint Leonard, MD passed away on October 18, 2023 unexpectedly at home. Born on July 22, 1951 to Wesley "Red" Stallings and Mamie Lee Marshburn Stallings in Jacksonville, North Carolina. They moved to Maryland when Marsha was very young.
She is survived by her partner, Douglas Slezak; son Marcus Walker and his wife Deborah Walker; sister Phyllis Baker and her husband Daniel Baker, nephew Danny Baker and his wife Roberta Baker and their children and grandchildren, niece Natalie Garner and her husband Troy Garner and their children; sister Donna Sealey and her husband Greg Sealey, nephew Josh Sealey and his wife Toby Sealey and their children, niece Ashley Sealey and her wife Michelle Hardy, brother Randy Stallings and his children and grandchildren; niece Karen Stallings and her children and grandchildren, and nephew Billy Stallings and his wife Crystal Stallings and their children and grandchildren. She was preceded by her parents and brother William Stallings.
Marsha had a love for life and had many interests. Line dancing with the Southern Maryland Boot Scooters, shark tooth and fossil hunting, photography, camping, traveling, genealogy and most of all spending time with family. She enjoyed a nice campfire and the company of family and friends to enjoy it with. Marsha loved children and believed every child was a very special gift. Marsha attended many ball games, horse shows, dance recitals, triathlons and much more. She was the best cheerleader a family could ever hope for. She was always there to help anyone in anyway she could. Marsha was not afraid to work hard and get dirty to make sure she did her part no matter the task. If you ever seemed down or needed someone to listen, Marsha would, then try to encourage you and find the positive things in the situation that made you feel better. Marsha would always put others' needs before her needs and always tried to see the good in every person. Marsha valued each person's friendship dearly. She really liked road trips and not knowing what was around the next corner to experience. Marsha liked to be adventurous and try new things like zip-lining, kayaking, white water rafting, hot air ballooning and even owned a horse for a while. We will all miss trying one of her recipes that she had found on-line and modified slightly. Marsha was always searching for the perfect crabcake too. She always started her day with a hot cup of coffee no matter where she was to honor her father. Marsha's self-respect and integrity kept her true to herself as she never gave in to the demands and expectations of others. Above all Marsha prided herself in striving to be the best person she could, because that is how her mom, Mami Lee raised her to be. Marsha was very much loved and touched many lives. We will truly miss her.
