Corene Walton: Newspaper Obituary and Death Notice

Macon Telegraph, The (GA) - Thursday, October 20, 2011

Deceased Name: Corene Walton
Warner Robins GA United States

Corene Walton -WARNER ROBINS - Corene (Wilkes) Walton of Warner Robins, Georgia, was born March 11, 1918 in Laurens County, Georgia, and after a long illness, passed away Saturday, October 15, 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia. Corene was preceded in death by her husband of forty-four years, Rufus Walton, and six siblings including her twin sister, Irene. She is survived by her sister, Sally Wilkes Shuman of Baxley, Georgia and twelve nieces and nephews in Georgia, Ohio and Texas.

Corene's early years in Laurens County involved getting an education, helping out at home with the younger siblings, and helping with the gardening. She was also athletic and loved involvement in sports. Corene, her older sister, Edith, and her twin Irene were starters on her high school basketball team.

Corene was a graduate of the Georgia State College for Women (since renamed Georgia State College and University), and subsequently earned her teaching certificate during summers while teaching. She taught the fourth grade at RW Lindsey Elementary School in Warner Robins for more than thirty years before retiring, and then enjoyed a second career substitute teaching in Houston County for eight years. She was an active member of the First United Methodist Church in Warner Robins for many years, and hosted the Wilkes family's annual Christmas Reunion for more than twenty years.

As her health declined, Corene moved to Atlanta eleven years ago to be near her sisters Irene and Elizabeth. The family is especially grateful for the continuing support from her church home in Warner Robins, especially the love and support of the TLC Group who continued to communicate with her to the end of her life.

Graveside services will be held Sunday, October 23, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. in Magnolia Park Cemetery in Warner Robins.

Retired executive remembered for community, church work

PLANT CITY --
More than 200 people turned out last week to remember Danny Wilkes, who for many years was the face of the Tampa Electric Co. in this area.

Wilkes, a Plant City native, worked with TECO for 40 years, serving as its community relations director before retiring in 2005. During the 1980s and early-1990s, Wilkes was an active member of the local business community. He served as the chairman of the Greater Plant City Chamber of Commerce in 1994 and 1999 and served on the board of the chamber's Economic Development Council from its inception in 1992 until he retired from TECO.

Wilkes died Aug. 31 after a long illness. He was 69.

Rev. Tom Thoeni, the pastor of St. Peter's Episcopal Church, which hosted a memorial service for Wilkes on Thursday, remembered him as a tireless volunteer and longtime leader in the church.

"Danny was determined, a hard worker and a fighter to the very end," Thoeni said. "Danny showed the same dedication to his family, his job, the community and to his church. His work ethic was amazing. When you look around our church, there is nowhere you can look that wasn't built, repaired or tended to by Danny. He was an important part of church leadership, and in his quiet way was a pillar in the community for many years."

Former city manager Phil Waldron worked with Wilkes on the economic development council, helping companies that wanted to expand and trying to lure new businesses to Plant City.

"He was on top of every project we ever took on," Waldron said. "He was very detail-oriented, professional and really all-business. He was an excellent liaison between TECO and the community, even in his retirement. He will be missed."

Willkes graduated from Plant City High School in 1961 and then attended Daytona Beach Junior college before going to work with TECO in 1965.

Throughout his career, his devotion to his hometown was evident.

"As a native son, he was a perfect fit for his job as community relations director in our town," City Commissioner Dan Raulerson said. "TECO and the community both profited from his efforts. Danny worked hard behind the scenes to get the job done. He was really an icon in this town but never sought the limelight.

"Danny was the perfect example of 'I don't care who gets the credit, as long as the job gets done.' He lived his life that way."

Wilkes did lots of things to benefit the community, families and individuals that he never talked about, said his wife of 47 years, Jayne.

"He was not someone who sought recognition or praise, not even from his family," she said. "Danny would be recognized for something he helped accomplish in the city, and it would be the first I had heard of it. He worked hard but never looked for personal gain."

In addition to his wife, Wilkes is survived by daughters Lisa Wilkes-Corbett and Pam Malenfant, four grandchildren and several nieces, nephews and cousins.

George H. Newman is a journalist who lives and works in Plant City.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Claxton and Evelyn Wilkes.

He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather. Danny loved his family, his church, and his community. He was a Plant City native and served as an Associate Director of the Florida Strawberry Festival, two years as President of the Plant City Chamber of Commerce and many other community committees. He was employed with Tampa Electric Company for 40 years, retiring in 2005. He loved spending time in his Bat Cave, North Carolina mountain home surrounded with family and friends.

Nolia Wilkes Watkins
(January 5, 1925 - November 27, 2012)

Macon-Nolia Wilkes Watkins, age 87, died at home on November 27, 2012, after several years of declining health.

She was the widow of M.T “Tommy” Watkins, who died in 1996, a marriage that lasted for over 55 years. Mrs. Watkins was born in Laurens County to Othan Wilkes and Essie Greenway Wilkes on Jan 5, 1925. Living in Macon most of her life, she was a graduate of A. L. Miller Sr. High School.

She is survived by her son Walter T. Watkins of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and daughter and son-in-law Wanda W. and Dr. John P. Atkinson, of Macon, grandchildren Thomas H. and Bethany A. Atkinson of Decatur, GA, and Drs. Steven P. and Denise S. Atkinson of Smyrna, GA, great grandchildren Luke and Landon Atkinson of Decatur, GA, Corinne Atkinson of Smyrna, and “Best Buddy” Lorene Davis.

Mrs. Watkins was a devoted member of Cherokee Heights United Methodist Church for over 63 years and later became a member of Vineville United Methodist Church. She was also an active member of the Macon Women’s Club, Salvation Army, Wesley Glen, and the Methodist Home Auxiliaries until her health declined. One of her greatest joys was in serving others. At age 83, she learned to knit caps to give to ladies who had hair loss due to cancer treatments. During the next 2½ years she knitted and gave away over 400 caps and was instrumental in establishing knitting groups all over the Southeast. She always prayed that each recipient would receive as much joy in wearing the cap as she had in making it. A celebration of her life will be held at Vineville United Methodist Church on Friday, November 30, at 2:00 o’clock with Dr. Marcus Tripp and Rev. Jimmy Duke, Jr., officiating with visitation to follow. Burial will be private. The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Vineville United Methodist Church; Epworth by the Sea Methodist Center (PO Box 20407, St. Simons Island, GA 31522), (www.epworthbythesea.org); or Heifer International, (att.
