The mural commissioned by Linden Economic Development Corporation was finished ahead of schedule and in time for holiday travelers to take notice.

Aaron Thibeaux Walker was born May 28, 1910, in the Bear Creek Community near Linden. Walker cut his first record in 1929. In 1947, he produced "Stormy Monday" for which he will always be remembered. Walker died in 1975 at the age of 65."
