Marlin Edwin "Skip" WATKINS (VETERAN VIET)

Watkins Farm Cemetery
Giles County,
Tennessee

August 27, 1945 - November 23, 2011

Skip died the evening before Thanksgiving 2011. Per his wishes he was cremated and his wife kept his ashes to be scattered at a later date hopefully along side Richards. He need to be remembered and I set another memorial beside Richard in his Honor. Skip server two tours in country in Viet Nam during the war from 1968-1970.
He served in the United States Air Force from 1967-1972. Lived in Florida after that the rest of his life but always loved to visit the farm and sit on Sugar Creek with a guitar in hand playing his music by a bond fire at night. The last time he was there mom was there the summer of 2010 a year before she died and a year and a half before he died.
