According to the next to last paragraph about the group found here:

http://www.classicbands.com/jrwalker.html

there are no members still with us.

"Sadly, Junior Walker developed cancer in 1993 and as his health deteriorated, he had difficulty walking. He died on November 23, 1995 in Battle Creek, Michigan at age 53. In the wake of his death, Billy "Stix" Nicks continued to tour with a version of the All-Stars. Original drummer James Graves was killed in a car accident in 1967, and guitarist Willie Woods passed away in 1997 at the age of 60. Victor "Vic" Thomas died November 28th, 2010 in Battle Creek, Michigan."

There were a group of All Stars on the Motown 50th concerts in the UK , but I believe that was 2009 which was before Vic Thomas passed [[ if he was part of that group ) I was lucky enough to see
Jr Walker once on tour with Edwin Starr and Jimmy Ruffin all sadly no longer with us RIP
