Those left to cherish his memory are his son, Jackie Wilkinson Jr. and wife, Dana; daughter, Melissa Patt and husband, James; sister, Sheila Mason and husband, Paul;

brothers-in-law, Calvin Wallace and wife, Kathy, Paul Wallace and wife, Sounnia, Ray Wallace and wife, Paulette, Roy Wallace and wife, Susan; sisters-in-laws,

Irene Calcote, Elizabeth Franklin, Mary Ann Richie and husband, John, and Myrtle Cartwright and husband, Paul.

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.
