Ina Lynn Nesbit (Walker), was welcomed into Heaven.... Lynn was born January 5, 1935 in Freeport, Texas. She was the oldest of two daughters to Beaulah Mae and Waldo Hunt (both passed away). Ina Lynn, as she was called in Angleton High School, graduated in 1952 and then went on to Baylor University, where she was in the marching band, met and married Glen Walker and graduated with a degree in Elementary Education in 1956. Lynn taught 2nd grade and served as a home bound teacher for several years, while raising three children in the Baytown Schools. Lynn was not only busy as a teacher, but was an excellent seamstress and even established a child's line of clothing, "Texas Cute." Throughout Lynn's life, she served the Lord faithfully in many capacities; mission organizations of the Baptist Churches, mission trips to Tanzania Africa, Romania, Mexico and building trips with Volunteer Christian Builders.She also served as the church Secretary at Crane's Mill Baptist Church in Canyon Lake, where she has resided for more than 15 years.

  1. Lynn was such a dear and caring person and we will miss her. The Lord blessed us with bringing her into our lives and calling her our friend. Friend describes Lynn perfectly. She was such an inspiration to us. Jim & Karen Lee, Canyon Lake

  2. Lynn will be sorely missed at Cranes Mill Baptist Church. Her light did shine in many less-known capacities, especially in the choir to which she was very dedicated and she had a beautiful voice! She also worked with our youth and teamed with other members by providing meals to be sure they were fed during Bible study Wednesday nights. Most of all, Lynn was a friend and we loved her dearly.

  3. I remember Lynn, from her time in Baytown. She was a very caring mother. I’m glad to see she found happiness and service to God, in Texas and around the world. Robin Herring (Baytown)

  4. Sending thoughts and prayers of peace and comfort.
    I had the amazing opportunity to work with Lynn at Cranes Mill Baptist Church. Her smile would brighten anyone’s day, as it always did mine.
    Laura “LaMae” Ikels Canyon Lake TX

  5. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I have been a friend of Ina Lynn since she first moved to Angleton. We shared dance lessons, Girl Scouts, dances, band and basketball trips, Dirty Dozen slumber parties. We also shared trips around Texas in our later years with our friends Mary Nell, Patsy, and Fern. She always brought recent pictures of you –her family. She was so proud of each of you. She leaves you quite a legacy of her faith. Keep the faith and you will join her again some day in her miraculous heavenly home.

  6. Thankful for my many years of friendship with Lynn that began in our early years in Angleton. She was a dear friend who was always very loving and understanding. I will miss her always!
