Leonard Napoleon Wilkes

September 21, 1966 - February 26, 2021

Leonard Napoleon Wilkes was born to William Leonard Wilkes and Minnie Mae Moats on September 21, 1966, in Marianna, Florida. Len graduated from high school in Marianna and moved to Tallahassee where he lived out the rest of his life. On February 26, 2021, Len passed away with his wife by his side. Leonard and Gail are long-time members of the Victory Thru Truth Ministries. He loved to hunt and with his family he loved to go fishing and camping. However, by far, his favorite hobby was his grandchildren. Leonard is survived by his wife of 31 years, Gail Harris-Wilkes, daughter Amanda McCormick (Wilman), son Austin Wilkes (Katey), grandchildren Lidia, Rebecca, Layla, Alex, and A.J.; “Grand-Dog” Enzo; Mother Minnie Barile (Don) of Phoenix, Arizona, sister Elizabeth Wilkes (Darrell), Tallahassee, FL, stepbrothers James Delaney and Jason Delaney; uncle Donald and Aunt Martha Wilkes, uncle Michael Wilkes, Aunt Linda Wood (Ed); and a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, and other extended family. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Broward & Lizzie Wilkes, his father William Leonard Wilkes, and brother Tony Glenn Wilkes. Len was a loving husband, father, and grandfather. He left his life on earth far too young. He will be forever missed and never forgotten. A celebration of Len's life will be held on Saturday, March 6, 2021 at 2:00 PM at the Victory Thur Truth Ministries, 8938 Old Woodville Road, Tallahassee, FL 32305.
