Mrs Watkins was such a spunky lady. She always welcomed us in the HHS library and had a smile on her face. Peace and comfort to the family.
Michael and I send condolences to the family. Your Mother, your Née was such a special person. While I didn’t see her often, I always left happier for having been in her presence. She truly loved visits and got such joy out of life, it spilled over to all of us. She will be missed.
Love and Blessings,
Mike & Julie Williamson
My beloved sister Janet was truly a fine lady. For 89 years we shared all the happenings of our lives and were unfailingly supportive of each other. As little girls we were best friends. As adults, she was always my 'night light.' Her death leaves a huge hole in my heart even though I know she will live there always. Janet, in my opinion, came as close as anyone I have ever known to being that person who could be allowed to cast the first stone.
I was so saddened to hear of Janet’s passing. She was such a classy lady, and a wonderful addition to the Watkins family. I have very fond memories of visits to the house at the farm. Also, my girls thought the world of her when she worked at Harrison High School.
Sincerely,
Beth Breit Green
