Emory A. Waller, Jr.

Emory A. Waller Jr. passed away peacefully at the hospital on August 2, 2025, surrounded by love. He was born on June 27, 1950, and lived a full life devoted to his family, his faith, and those he held dear.

Emory proudly served in the United States Navy from 1970 to 1974, living a life marked by honor, strength, and dedication. More than anything, he was a Christian who deeply loved the Lord, and his faith was a cornerstone of his life.

He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Emory Alford Waller Sr. and Dorthy Ruth Stevens Waller, lovingly known as “Mama Dot,” as well as his brothers Harley Waller and Owen Waller.

He is survived by his children: Kellie Seawright, Karrie Old (Justin), Kris Waller (Pam), James Hale (Michelle), and Regina Zuck (Jon); brothers Mark Waller and Steve Waller; 15 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren.

Emory was a devoted father, a loyal brother, a proud veteran, a man of faith, and a cherished friend. His legacy of love, strength, and belief in God will continue to live on through his children, family, and all who knew him.

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
— 2 Timothy 4:7

A celebration of life service will be held at a later date.
