Barbara Wilkinson Obituary

Barbara Mae (Henninger) Wilkinson

May 2, 1931 - March 16, 2022

Born May 2, 1931 in Kearney, NE, Barbara grew up in Lincoln with her sister, Vernelle. She and husband John Wilkinson moved to California with their young family in the 60's. She spent many years in Los Osos, CA and later moved to Henderson, NV to be near family.

Barb had 3 sons; Joe (Kimiko), Mike (Alexandra), and Patrick (Patricia) Wilkinson, a niece Ann (Lee) Wassenberg, grandchildren Annie Wilkinson, Lilly Ahrens, and Cody, Silas, Jesse, Emma, Elena and Javier Wilkinson, and great nephew and niece Nick and Liz Vaske.

In lieu of flowers the family asks that you hug a friend, and call your mom and dad if you can.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
