Walter Leon Atkinson, Jr.

In loving memory of Walter Leon Atkinson, Jr., affectionately known as “Mr. Cool” for his calm wisdom, quick wit, and ever-gracious heart, the family invites those wishing to honor his life to consider a donation in lieu of flowers. Two causes close to his soul reflect the joy, service, and humility with which he lived:

Bluffton United Methodist Church – United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR)

A devoted member of the Bluffton congregation, he believed in quiet acts of compassion. Donations to UMCOR carry forward his gentle strength by aiding communities in times of crisis.

Golf was more than a pastime—it was part of his peaceful rhythm. As an Army veteran, he would be proud to support fellow service members healing through the game he loved.

He danced through life with humility, humor, and devotion—especially to his beloved wife, whose light he always lifted above his own. His legacy is the grace he left behind.
