Robert Walls

Robert “Bob” Paul Walls, born November 21, 1959, in Knoxville, Tennessee, to Robert Spurgeon Walls and Margaret Deacon, lived a life marked by service, loyalty, and an unwavering love for people. Bob spent his childhood between Tennessee and Florida, creating deep roots in both places.

At 17 years old, Bob proudly enlisted in the United States Air Force, beginning a distinguished career that spanned multiple roles. Among his many assignments, his time with Security Forces remained one of his fondest memories. He later completed his service in Air Force Emergency Management, where his dedication, leadership, and commitment to excellence left a lasting impact.

Bob was never a shy man. He could strike up a conversation with anyone and never hesitated to speak his mind. Known for his integrity, humor, and larger-than-life personality, he brought joy and energy to every room he entered. In his later years, Bob found a warm and supportive community in West Fargo, North Dakota—a group of friends he considered family.

Bob is survived by his loving wife of 22 years, Patricia Walls of West Fargo, ND; his daughter Jenifier and son Robert D. Walls of Schertz, TX; his bonus daughters Katie Economon, Kerri (Anthony) Marucco, and Kelly (Jimmy) Mathenge; and his seven cherished grandchildren—Dominic, Jazmyn, Jacob, Kaitlyn, Roberto, Anthony, and Andrew. He is also survived by his sisters Lynne Grubb of Davie, FL, Donna (Jerry) Jenkins of Knoxville, TN, and Beverly Adams, of Columbia, SC.

Services will be planned for a later date.
