In memory of Aidan Walker
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Aidan Walker, beloved son of Kevin and Khin (nee Kyone) Walker, cherished brother to Connor and Erin, grandson to Karen Walker and Hans Weber, Keith and Judy Walker, and Ken and Nancy Kyone. Aidan was immeasurably loved by Aunt Kim and Uncle James, Uncle Ken and Aunt Kelly (in spirit), Uncle Elliot, Uncle Soe Lwin and Aunt Shirley, and cousins Cody, Grace, Andrew, Kristen, and Justin.
Aidan suffered an irrecoverable aneurysm on January 2nd. Aidan was an outgoing 19 year-old young man with a bright future. He was a competitive swimmer with Markham Aquatic Club for 10 years where he achieved National level competition. He was a brilliant student completing high school at Bill Crothers Secondary School finishing with highest honours. He was studying engineering at the University of Waterloo.
Aidan had a large group of dedicated friends with whom he loved spending time. He had a love of music of all genres and loved listening to his Dad’s old 70s music. He had a newfound interest in cooking and enjoyed sharing recipes and assisting Mom in the kitchen. He recently took up chess and spent several hours every day honing his skills and rising steadily in the chess rankings. He spent his final day with his girlfriend Tianhui playing ping pong and baking treats. He passed peacefully at St. Michael's Hospital with his family at his side.
Most of all Aidan just loved be amongst the people that loved him as much as he loved them.
Forever in our hearts.
For those that would like to share the family’s gratitude towards St. Michael’s Hospital, donations will be made in Aidan’s memory to support the Brain & Heart Centre at St. Michael’s Hospital.
