Anthony Wilkins Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Anthony was born in Vermillion, SD on Jan 2, 2005. At the tender age of 9 months, he was placed in the loving foster home of Gary and Betty Davis, who loved him more than words can describe. When Anthony was 22 months old, he was placed with his brothers into the home of his adoptive parents, Steve and Tricia Wilkins.
Anthony attended school in Brookings, SD and then McCrossan's in Sioux Falls, SD. He moved to Texas in March of 2024 and was recently promoted to a managerial position at Albertson's. His favorite things in life were his niece Addison, playing basketball, hanging out with his friends and wanting to help those around him. In keeping with Anthony's loving and generous spirit, it was his decision to donate life so that others may live. His tissues and organs, including his liver, kidneys, lungs and heart have restored life's promise for many families.
Anthony is survived by his loving parents, Steve and Tricia Wilkins, his brother Zeke and sisters Taylor and Sophia, all of Brookings, SD, sister Brittney (Tamarick) and niece Addison of Orlando, FL, grandparents, Larry and Connie Hobbie of Flandreau, SD, Lori Groth of Alta, IA, Letoy Fackelman of Rapid City, SD, and foster mom Betty Davis of Wokanda, SD, along with many beloved aunts, uncles, cousins and close friends.
Anthony is preceded in death by his grandparents Steve and Sandy Wilkins, grandfather Mike Francis, and foster dad Gary Davis.
Following completion of his life donation gifts, Anthony will be cremated in Texas.
