William Watkins Obituary
Bill made his living working with construction equipment, a trade he took great pride in. He also loved to fish in his spare time.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his brother-in-law, Jerry Carroll; siblings Leonard Watkins, Mildred Beckham, and Veronica Freeman; and his niece, Janice Thorpe.
Bill is survived by his siblings: Michael Watkins, Andrew Watkins, Jessica Carroll, Jim Watkins, Juanita Roland, Cynthia Hastings, and Eric Watkins. He also leaves behind many beloved nieces and nephews who will cherish his memory, as well as his close friends, Angela and Hunter Johnson, who held a special place in his heart.
