The Dalton Walker Endowed Legacy Scholarship was established by Dalton's devoted parents, brother, and cherished friends to honor his remarkable life. Dalton was a radiant presence, bringing joy, laughter, and inspiration to everyone fortunate enough to know him. With an unwavering love for his family and countless friends, he had an extraordinary gift for offering the perfect words at just the right moment, uplifting others, boosting their confidence, and inspiring them to reach their fullest potential. His infectious zest for life – expressed through his radiant smile, spirited dance moves, playful humor, and signature phrases like "slay" and "iconic" – made it impossible to feel anything but uplifted in his presence.
Dalton's passion for the medical field was matched only by his relentless work ethic. A standout student, he maintained a 4.0 GPA in his BSN program at Arizona College of Nursing (Las Vegas), where he was on track to graduate in December, 2025. His ambition to become a Nurse Practitioner reflected his deep commitment to helping others. Though Dalton's loss is profoundly felt, this scholarship ensures his legacy of empowering others to excel endures, touching the lives of future scholars who share his drive and compassion.
