I grew up in the same neighborhood as the Wilkins family. I was good friends with GayDell, but I remember Nolan too. He is gone too young. May God bless your families. Scott and Claudia were there with loving arms to greet him. Sorry for your loss GayDell.

God never promised a life without pain, laughter without sorrow, nor sun without rain, but he did promise strength for the day, comfort for the heart, and light for the way.

May you find peace in the love of family and in the warmth embrace of friends.

love always,
