Please pray for Pastor Watkins family and the church in Dangerfield TX. This is a shock to all. Bro. Watkins was gentle giant, a powerful preacher and a great man.

How old was he? Had he been ill?

He was not old. I would say... in his 50's.

Brother Watkins suffered a heart attack a little over a week ago. He had gone through surgery where a stint had been placed in an artery that was 90% blocked and sent home to rest & recover. With proper rest a full or near full recovery was expected.

He, apparently, passed in his sleep some time during the night.
