Virginian-Pilot  November 20, 2015
Norfolk - Daryl Edwin Adkins, 84, of Norfolk, Virginia, passed away on November 
13, 2015 in his home. He retired at the age of 60 from Dominion Virginia Power 
after 38 years of loyal service. For 20 years following retirement he was an 
active golfer playing daily at Lake Wright or Ocean View Golf Course. His service 
in the US Marine Corps brought him from his hometown of Huntington, West Virginia 
to Norfolk where he met Nancy Ann Stokley, the love of his life.

Left to cherish his memory is his devoted wife of 61 years, Nancy, who he fondly 
called "his bride"; his loving daughters, Kathy Eisenhower (James "Ike" 
Eisenhower) and Karen Adkins Logan. He was blessed with three grandchildren, 
Shelby Eisenhower Neal (Christopher), Sara Logan and Ian Logan and again doubly 
blessed by twin great granddaughters, Kenzie Ann Neal and Avery Kate Neal. Daryl 
is also survived by his sister, Amy Swisher, and numerous nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Edgar and Bertie Adkins, his sister, 
Deloris Adkins Myers all of South Point, Ohio and his brother-in-law, William M. 
Stokley of Norfolk, Virginia.

The family would like to thank Sentara Hospice and the following caregivers for 
their loving companionship and care; Christy, Annette, Mary S., Mary L., Julie, 
Celeste, Irene and Becky's Helping Hands.

A memorial service is scheduled for November 27, 2015 at 2:00 pm at Hollomon-Brown 
Funeral Home on Tidewater Drive, Norfolk, VA. The family will receive visitors at 
1:00 pm prior to the service. A reception to celebrate Daryl's life will follow 
the service at the Chesapeake Athletic Club at 3544 Argonne Avenue, Norfolk, VA 
23509. In lieu of flowers, please make memorial contributions to Lee's Friends at
