Jayland Edward Walker, age 25, was taken away unexpectedly June 27, 2022. Born on July 20, 1996, in Akron Ohio, he was the loving son of Pamela Walker, dear brother of Jada Walker, and beloved grandson of Thomas and Betty Addie and Sylvester and Dosha Walker.

He was preceded in death by beloved father, Edward P. Walker; doting grandparents; and loving fiancée, Jaymeisha Beasley.

Jayland was a kind and gentle soul who loved to make others laugh. He was known as a great person and stand-up guy by his classmates at Erie Island grade school, North Akron Catholic middle school, and Buchtel High School.

A true family man, Jayland cherished the time he spent with his mother, sister, and grandmother. He had a zeal for life and loved traveling with his beloved fiancée. He loved underground music and basketball. He was just beginning to live his life, saving money to become a successful entrepreneur with aspirations of starting a business. He was loved by many and leaves behind a heartbroken family and friends who seek justice, peace, and dignity in the wake of his tragic death.

"Infinity 7" every week it seems we bury a daughter or son after hundreds of years this carnage rages on the D.A. will say it's justifiable and like strange fruit no one is liable protect and serve is rolling down our street squeezing on a trigger with no heartbeat and the people cry-

I've lost a child but cannot compare my loss to yours. I'm sure many feel the same as I do when I say my heart breaks for you however It is also filled with so much anger over the unimaginable way it happened. I can only hope that your loss brings justice in Jaylands name affecting change to prevent other senseless tragedies at the hands of those slated to serve and protect our communities.

So sorry for the lost of this beautiful young man. May your soul RIP.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

He wasn't my baby it was my friend's baby but I had a baby just like him!!! My baby was older but it still hurts the same!!! Losing a child is like losing your heart and soul!!! In time my friend will come to terms with it - not saying she will ever get over it but God will blanket her in comfort like He's done with me!! My prayers are with the family and I love them❤
