Doris Jean West Wilkinson
May 13, 1928 — April 28, 2011
On April 28, 2011, Doris “Jean” West Wilkinson, 82, of Monroe, went to be with her Savior Jesus Christ and her heavenly family who welcomed her with open arms. Funeral services will be held at 2:00 PM Saturday, April 30, 2011, in the chapel of Mulhearn Funeral Home, Sterlington Road, Monroe, with her niece Rev. Cindy Goza and Rev. Joe Solomon officiating. Interment will follow in Mulhearn Memorial Park Cemetery.
Jean lived life to its fullest and found so many ways to celebrate and make the most out of every day. She was 15 days shy of her 83rd birthday. Nothing was more important to her than her family and friends. She considered herself rich, not because of wealth or possessions, but because of the treasure she found with the people she knew and loved. Those who knew her will say that their lives are enriched because of the laughter and stories that were shared.
Mrs. Wilkinson was a member of First Baptist Church of West Monroe, and was a volunteer at North Monroe, LA Parents Without Partners and Council on Aging.
Mrs. Wilkinson was preceded in death by her parents, D. Emmet and Doris West; and sister, Beth Goza.
Survivors include her daughters, Sharon Vaughan and husband Warren, Kay Twitchell, and Kathy Sinclair and husband Donnie; son, David Wilkinson and wife Rosie; grandchildren, David “West” Vaughan and wife Melinda, Brent Vaughan and wife Alison, Brandi Vaughan, Amy Twitchell, Matthew Twitchell, Chelsea Wilkinson, Christie Hill and husband Eric, and Michael Monk; great grandchildren, David West Vaughan, Victoria Vaughan, Brent Vaughan, Jr., Gage Vaughan, Cade Vaughan, and Jakob Hatten; nieces, Cindy Goza and Lisa Chris.
Pallbearers will be Ernest Breard, Lawrence Vaughan, Anthony Messina, Doug Winn, Warren Matson, and Scott Vaughan. Honorary pallbearers will be Glenn Bundy, Joe Natasi, and Tony Messina.
Visitation will be Friday from 5:00 PM until 7:00 PM at Mulhearn Funeral Home, Sterlington Road, Monroe.
The family wishes to extend special thanks to Peggy and Bobby Martin. Words cannot express our appreciation to a special part of the family Danny Twitchell, Pokeno friends, and special friends Allyson Brooks and Amanda Rosenzweig Primeau.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorials to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital or to the Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home.
