Dustin Nyle Wilkins

Dustin loved his family and battled fiercely for their wellbeing. He has two sons, Trieden Anthony Wilkins and Kaleb Sebastian Wilkins, who he'll always love to the moon and back. The love of his life, Cori Cunningham, brought two more children into his care, Kylee and Ethan. Together they provided a crazy-happy home for all four kids. Dustin was always a good provider and worked hard for the family he loved so dearly.

Dustin's family was super-sized when his Mom, Janet, married Jim Sadler, and his Dad, Eric Wilkins, married Bonnie. His little sister, Leesa Eshelman (husband Sam), gave him a niece, Madison and a nephew, Jaxson, to snuggle and tease. Dustin's living grandparents, Glenda Shumway and Vince and Diane Wilkins, reside in Utah County. Cori's parents, Pete and Tammy Cunningham, added even more family, two brothers, Kyle and Kelly, a sister, Carrie and more nieces and nephews.

Dustin--nicknamed “Milk” by his many good friends--is still close to most of his childhood buddies. He was a hunting enthusiast and loved the outdoors. Camping and boating with family and friends was his favorite activity.

Dustin chose to transition to the next phase of his existence for reasons that we don't understand--but someday will. We take comfort that this beautiful man's life will forever be remembered for the 37 years of joy and happiness he brought so many.

A celebration of life will be held Saturday, February 11, 2017 from 1:00-4:00 p.m. at Valley View Memorial Park and Funeral Home, 4335 West 4100 South, West Valley City, Utah.
