He is also survived by five grandchildren, Kayla Wilkinson, Austin Patt and wife, Kara, Kolby Wilkinson, Mary Ellen Patt and Coleman Love;

and expecting a great grandchild in October; along with numerous nieces, nephews and friends, and his beloved Australian Shephard Yogi Berra Wilkinson.

He will be dearly missed by all that loved and knew him.
