Dwight Lewis Watkins

He is survived by his daughter, Tamara Watkins Green and husband, Bill; sons, David S. Watkins and wife, Marnie, Eric M. Watkins and wife, Robin; and six grandchildren; Emily Lust and husband, Jon, Brock Clary, Amy Watkins, Keeley Watkins, Autumn Watkins, Jill Watkins; and triplet great-grandchildren; JJ, Olivia and Scarlette Lust.

Dwight graduated from North High School in 1943, served in the Army Air Corps during WWII and graduated from Miami University in 1948. Dwight was married to his wife Paula for 50 wonderful years. He enjoyed traveling the world with Paula, playing golf, tennis, handball, flying and all of the associations and friendships derived from those activities. Dwight spent his entire working career in the printing business, founded by his father, and found it all to be fascinating, challenging and completely fulfilling. Life was very good all the way to the end.

Dwight will be fondly remembered for his quick wit, sense of humor, discipline, passion for golf and his general love of life. He was a lifelong member of Brookside Golf and Country Club, The Golf Club and The Tryall Club.

A private celebration of life will be held by the family, at a later date. Dwight will be laid to rest with his beloved Paula at Union Cemetery, Columbus, Ohio.
