April 13, 1962 — April 2, 2017
Paul W. Watkins, Sr., 54, of Cheyenne, died on Sunday, April 2, 2017 at the Davis Hospice Center.
He was born on April 13, 1962 in South Bend, Indiana to Eleanor and Norbert Watkins.

Watkins, Jr.; two stepdaughters that he raised since children, September Aitken and Julie DeKov of Cheyenne, Wyoming; four brothers; two sisters; and seven grandchildren.
