It is with great sorrow that Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated shares the passing of our beloved 25th National President, Dr. Paulette C. Walker. Dr. Walker made her peaceful transition during the evening of Wednesday, October 8, 2025, in her family home of Detroit, Michigan.
Dr. Walker was a beloved member of Delta Sigma Theta since 1966. A woman of deep faith and unshakable fortitude, she led with wisdom, integrity, and a servant’s heart at every level of the organization. Her intelligence, fierce wit, and lifelong love for numbers reflected not only her analytical brilliance but also her passion for education, excellence, and empowering others. She is remembered not only for her role as a leader but for being a colleague, friend, and most of all, sister. To know Dr. Walker was simply to love her.
The entire sisterhood of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, mourns the loss of Dr. Walker. During this difficult time, we ask that you respect her family’s privacy and keep them in your prayers.
