Lougenie Lee Walker, age 69 of Charlotte went home to be with her Lord on Thursday, May 28, 2020 after a brief struggle with Covid-19. Genie was the daughter of the late Trenton E Walker and Doris Abbott Walker. She is survived by her sister Deborah Walker Barger and brother-in-law James Barger of Huntersville, and her nieces Kaitlyn Faith Barger of Reno, NV and Bailey Elizabeth Barger of Los Angeles, CA.
Genie resided the last years of her life in the loving and resident-centered care of Monarch Meadowview Group Home in Wingate, NC. She was able to flourish there and provided joy and entertainment to the staff and her fellow residents. She was mentally challenged from birth but this never stopped her gregarious personality, love of people, and ability to notice beauty in the things others normally overlook.
Genie is at McEwen Funeral Home on Monroe Road in Charlotte and a small private service will be held graveside in Sharon Memorial Gardens where she will be interred next to her parents. In lieu of flowers the family requests contributions be made to the organization of your choice in her memory.
