Ilo Fayne Steward, 84, Jones, went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, August 18, 2002 at her home after a brief but courageous battle with cancer. She was born on February 13, 1918 to John B. and Florence Lola (Cline) Steward in Roger Mills County, where she lived until the age of 18 when she moved to Oklahoma City with her parents. At the age of 20, she married her childhood sweetheart, Victor Calvin Walker. She was a faithful, dedicated and loving minister's wife for 61 years in the churches of the Assemblies of God. She supported Calvin as he continued to minister in revivals, holding special services and serving as interim pastors in various churches in Oklahoma. Ilo's hobbies included quilting, sewing, crafts, working crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, caring for her beautiful flowers, gardening and reading. She loved spending time with her grand and great grandchildren, whether it was riding horses, reading, playing games or just listening to them and making them comfortable beside her bedside when they spent the night with her. She is survived by her husband of 64 years, Calvin Walker; children, J.C. & wife, Glenda of Jones, Sandra & husband, Jack Orr of Toledo, OH, Warren & wife, Patty of Valdese, NC, Vick & wife, LaQuita of Jones; grandchildren, Renee' & Mike, Susie & Michael, Cyndi & Rick, Mike & Trish, Monica & Gary, Marty & Deanna, Stephen, Monte & Laurie, Monya & Chad, Brad & Gina, & Callie. There are 12 great grandchildren with one on the way. A sister, Leila Ferne Allen of Cheyenne, numerous nephews, nieces & cousins, also survives Ilo. She was preceded in death by her parents, a brother, John 'Junior' Steward and a daughter, Sheryl Walker Colvin. All who knew Ilo will remember the Godly example shown by her gentle, kind, sweet spirit. Her family will especially deeply miss her presence in the home. The family wishes to extend a thank you to Dr. Clifton Murphy, Sister Mary, Nurse Angie, Aide Ronnie for their compassionate, professional assistance during this time. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to Carter Hospice Care at 4301 Will Rogers Parkway # 100, OKC, OK 73108. Services are 10:00 a.m., Thursday, August 22, 2002 at the Jones Assembly of God Church with burial in Jones IOOF Cemetery.
