He was born in Martland, to William and Ruth (Davis) Wilkins on August 30, 1925. While attending Geneva High school, Don answered his country’s call for service, and joined the United States Navy in 1942 at the age of 17. After the war, Don was discharged in 1945 at which time he married his bride, Katherine Watson. Together they made a home and a life together while raising their five children. Retried from the construction industry, Don enjoyed playing cards and golfing, but his passion was traveling the highways and byways behind the wheel of his Lincoln Town Car. Don is survived by sons, David (Kathy) Wilkins, Dennis (Linda Peterson) Wilkins, Charles (Kami) Wilkins; daughters, Kimberly Raney, Tamara Salinas; sister, Marian Myers; sisters-in-law, Donna Wilkins; Evelyn Mosley and Carol Lueke; brother-in-law, Walter Watson and many nieces and nephews. Don will be remembered for his strong presence, gentle spirit and his unwavering work ethic, but his lasting legacy is his 14 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren. Don is preceded in death by wife, Katherine; grandson, Daniel; granddaughter, Ashley, and beloved brother and sisters. A memorial service was held on May 11 at the Geneva Evangelical Free Church with Pastor Jeff Jensen officiating.
