Paul A. Wilkins, 91, of Tarrs, went to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, at 4:10 a.m. Monday, March 11, 2019, in Excela Health Frick Hospital, Mt. Pleasant. Paul was born July 23, 1927, in Scottdale, a son of the late Alexander and Sarah (Lint) Wilkins. Paul married Catherine (Carnes) Biller Wilkins in 2000. Paul was a devoted husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather who regularly played the harmonica in church to help spread the gospel. He was a retired saw operator at Scottdale Wood Products for 48 years and a faithful member of the First Brethren Church of Mt. Pleasant.

Pleasant, Lori Tucker and husband Ed, of Mill Run, and Anita Garlowich and husband Tim, of Maryland; his 23 grandchildren; his 17 great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his first wife, Grace (Millward) Wilkins, in 1995; his granddaughter, Lisa Wilkins; and his 11 brothers and sisters.
