Evelyn Marie Wilkins
1928 - 2019
Evelyn (Eve) Wilkins, 91, of Findlay, went home to Heaven on Friday, November 22, 2019, at Bridge Hospice, Findlay, Ohio. She is rejoicing in the presence of her Lord and Savior and in the arms of Richard, her husband of 63 years. After meeting at the age of 11, having never dated another, Eve and Richard were married February 1, 1945, until his passing on January 13, 2011. She was also preceded in death by two brothers: Bernard and Elwood Ike. Eve is survived by a daughter, Beverle (Bob) Yoder; three sons: James (Ann), Jon Timothy (Robin), and Rob (Melanie) Wilkins; nine grandchildren: Robin Lager, Bethany Allen, Tanya Height, James Wilkins, Jonathan Wilkins, Tabitha Stevens, Taylor Wilkins, Ethan Wilkins, and Annalyse Perez; and 13 (soon to be 14) great-grandchildren. In addition to caring for her children and grandchildren, loving each uniquely, she also served as manager of the Hello Shop in Findlay, OH and Lorain, OH, where she earned a reputation as an excellent manager and caring employer. Evelyn was actively involved in the ministry of the church her entire life. Her faith empowered her to do what she did best - shape and invest in the lives of nearly everyone she encountered. Visitation will be held at 11:00am on Wednesday, November 27, 2019, at Zanesfield Community Chapel in Zanesfield, OH, with the funeral immediately following at 12:00pm. Arrangements have been entrusted to COLDREN-CRATES FUNERAL HOME, Findlay. Online condolences may be left for the family at www.coldrencrates.com.
