We are saddened to announce the passing of our friend and colleague, Bob Walker. Bob was the managing executive broker in our North Little Rock office and a friend to everyone who knew him.
Following in his fathers footsteps, Bob received his real estate license in 1976 and from that day he never looked back. Highly regarded in his field, he loved sharing his knowledge and expertise and over the past 45 years he received numerous awards, accolades and honors. His most recent accomplishment was being named 2021 Realtor of the Year by the North Pulaski Board of Realtors and the Arkansas Realtor Association created the "Bob Walker Leadership Impact Award" in his honor.
