To the Wilkes Family: My sincere condolences for your loss, and extend prayers for your peace and comfort.
I will forever treasure Mr. Wilkes' warm smile followed with a hearty greeting or wave. His love of family, his hospitalitity, kindness, thoughtfulness, in depth conversations, BBQ creations from the backyard grill, and his demonstration of what a 'true neighbor' means for over 50 years cannot be replicated. He will be missed...

Uncle Wilfred is an Uncle that can never be forgotten or replaced. So family oriented and funny. My greatest memory of all time was the PIZZA EXPLOSION Tam, Resa, Rolanda caused. The frozen oranges was the bomb. Never a dull moment at the house. Love you forever. Tam
