Damaris A. Wilkinson Obituary

It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Damaris A. Wilkinson of Rock Falls, Illinois, who passed away at the age of 87, on January 29, 2026. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Damaris A. Wilkinson to show support.

As Damaris departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Damaris may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Damaris leaves behind.

She was predeceased by: her husband Clarence Wilkinson; and her brothers, William Baylis and David Arthur Baylis. She is survived by: her children, Sonya Schilpp (Buddy) of Rock Falls, Craig Wilkinson of Rock Falls, Eric Wilkinson of Harmon and Bruce Wilkinson (Peggy) of Rock Falls; her sisters-in-law, Joanne Baylis of Rockford and Joann Wilkinson Sterling; her grandson Dakota Wilkinson; and her great grandchild Brantley Wilkinson. She is also survived by several nieces and nephews.
