In Remembrance...
The R.F. Wilkinson Family YMCA Staff and Members celebrate the life and legacy left by Richard Franklin Wilkinson.
Colonel Wilkinson, the individual for whom your YMCA is named, passed away Friday, May 14th but his contribution to the Greater Williamsburg community will live on forever in the hearts of those who call this YMCA their own.
His legacy is in the future generations of children and adults who learned to swim the pool named for his son Tommy, in the lives of those families brought together within its walls, and in the friendships made over coffee. Colonel Wilkinson frequented his YMCA twice a week until just before his passing. His presence on the Wellness Floor and the joy he brought to his YMCA and community will be remembered for years to come. |
