Judge R. Lester Mullins, served Grant County as teacher, leader
Judge R. Lester Mullins of Williamstown leaves a legacy of public service unique in its scope and variety.
He was a county judge, teacher, school administrator, civic and church leader. He also was a firefighter, conservationist, hospital administrator, banker and farmer.
Judge Mullins died early Thursday at Grant Manor in Williamstown. He was 91.
Grant County Hospital, now called St. Elizabeth Medical Center/Grant County, and the Grant County Public Library are testament to his dedication. Stronger schools and better planned-community development are less tangible but equally important examples of his bequests.
"My dad grew up during the Depression, and he saw so many needs for the people in the area he'd grown up in," said a son, Gordon F. Mullins of Lexington.
"Part of his upbringing was a commitment to community service, and he knew what was necessary to bring about changes."
Judge Mullins was born in Pendleton County and had a farm in Dry Ridge that had been in his family for generations where he raised sheep, dairy cattle and tobacco. He earned a bachelor's degree in biology from Georgetown College in 1931.
Judge Millins worked more than 17 years for Grant County schools, first as a teacher and basketball coach at Crittenden School, then as a principal at Mason School and Dry Ridge High School. He spent the next 20 years as county judge of Grant County, a post his father, the Rev. G.C. Mullins, had held.
He helped modernize the water and sewer system in Williamstown, finance construction of rural water systems, and helped build public housing in Williamstown, where he served years as chief of the city's volunteer fire department.
Judge Mullins worked for better roads throughout Grant County and to bring Interstate 75 through it.
He helped establish the Grant County Joint City-County Planning Commission and pushed for formation of the Northern Kentucky Area Development District, subsequently serving as an executive committee member of the organization.
Judge Mullins worked with local, state and national conservation and wildlife support service organizations, and helped develop Corinth Lake and finance Grant County Park in Crittenden. He was state representative to the National Wildlife Federation, and the state named the Mullins Wildlife Management Area in Crittenden in his honor.
The county named an athletic field in Williamstown Mullins Field.
Judge Mullins was an administrator at Grant County Hospital, chairman of the Northern Kentucky Council on Aging and served on the board of directors of Citizens Bank in Dry Ridge. He was a member of Williamstown Baptist Church, serving as a trustee, building committee member and moderator.
He also was a member of Williamstown Rotary Club, Williamstown Kiwanis, Williamstown Public Housing Authority, Grant County Sportsmen's Club and Kentucky League of Sportsmen, and a life member of the Grant County Chamber of Commerce.
Judge Mullins' wife, Marion "Mernie" Clinkscales Mullins, died in 1996. Survivors include another son, R. Lorin Mullins of Franklin, eight grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
Services will be at 2 p.m. Sunday at Elliston-Stanley Funeral Home in Williamstown. Visitation will be from 4 to 9 p.m. Saturday at the funeral home. Burial will be in Hill Crest Cemetery
