Anna Lee Jean Wilkins

Mrs. Anna Lee Jean Wilkins 88 of Sophia passed away at her home surrounded by her family Friday, March 14, 2025, after a period of declining health. Mrs. Wilkins loved her very large family and enjoyed cooking and spending time with them. Working with plants and flowers was one of her favorite things to do. She so much enjoyed reading classic books. For many years, she joined her husband and sons painting commercial and residential properties. She never met a stranger and no matter where, a checkout counter or at a restaurant she always told them how much she appreciated what they did. Her first love was God, and she never had a meal without first blessing the food. Her next love was her husband of 36 years Oliver Wilkins who passed away too young. They were married December 6, 1956, and together had 5 beautiful children. One of Mrs. Wilkins favorite past times was taking rides with the kids in the spring and fall, seeing all the various brilliant colors of the season.

Mrs. Wilkins is survived by her daughters, Darlene Davidson (Randy) of Sophia, Kimberley Tyson of Sophia, Melody Martinez (Ricky) of Seagrove; sons, Timothy Wilkins of Climax and Oliver Wilkins Jr. (Susan) of Asheboro. Eight grandchildren Kevin-Shane-Brandi-Michael-TJ-Cali-Heather and Stephanie; 11 great-grandchildren and 6 great-great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband Oliver and 1 brother William Bill Thompson.
