Fred Walker
Easley
Alfred Lee "Fred" Walker, 65, husband of Sandra Gail Seawright Walker, passed away on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 at McCall Hospice House.
Born in Pickens County, to the late M.B. and Beatrice Hannah Walker, Fred was a veteran of the United States Marine Corps. After his time in the service, Mr. Walker started his own construction company, Barns Unlimited, as well as owning and operating West Main Auto Sales in Pickens. When he wasn't working, Fred was with his family, whom he loved more than anything else. Mr. Walker's third love was traveling. His favorite place he visited would have to be the Amish Countryside in Pennsylvania. He enjoyed seeing and studying the details of the buildings they constructed.
