In loving memory of my little soldier, James Charles Watkins. He was born on September 18, 1982, he was the youngest of three boys born to Mary Watkins. He had two brothers, Marcus Rhys Watkins and Benjamin Dean Callaway. Jamie graduated from Woodham High School 2001. He was in ROTC, Chorus, Drama and played soccer. He was a boy scout with his cousin, Eddie Belcher. He received many badges. After high school, Jamie joined the Army and served in Operation Enduring Freedom. He was so proud, he wanted to honor his grandpa, John Charles Fowler who served in WWII. Jamie played guitar and enjoyed fishing and being with his brother Rhys. He was always his mother’s baby, Jamie. He fought diabetes until his heart could not go anymore. He went home to be with God on November 15, 2019 to rest with his grandparents, Bonnia and John Fowler; uncle, Charles Fowler and his cousin, Chris Jackson.
