We are family. My great grandfather, Walter Davis Wilkins, started this business 85 years ago. As a little girl, I remember my whole family meeting at furniture market together and selecting the new styles we would bring home with us to Lubbock. Even now as an adult, I encounter many who recall when Wilkins was downtown and had a jewelry department and they exclaim, Oh! We bought our wedding ring at Wilkins! And even now with the business, we want entire families to come in and find something for everyone.
