Mr. Wilkins Sr, Aubrey and Family:
We were very sadden to read of Donald's passing. Being neighbors with the Wilkin's Sr. family, we saw and talked with Donald during his visits with his parents. Actively doing chores or anything to help his folks was his joy. Family was his heart. As you reflect, know your love endures forever! God will give you all strength and faith to know, he makes no mistakes. He knows what is best for all of us. You have our love, prayers and support. God Bless You All!
