Hawkin passed away in peace, without pain, and with the women he loved beside him.

Known in Steamboat for his boot repair and leather shop, he was also known for his love of country western dance. A beautiful dancer himself, he loved teaching others to dance as well. In his earlier years on the front range, he ran a dog kennel where he worked with dogs including the specialized art of police canine training. His artistic side prevailed when he opened a stain glass studio with his wife. He was a proud Air Force veteran and even prouder father of his beautiful daughter, Shara.

Hawkin will be remembered as a kind and fun loving man. He lived his life well.

No services will be held at this time.
