My heart goes out to everyone. I have known Wilma since I was under 10 years old. She and my aunt Gail worked together and were good friends. Always loved spending time with Wilma at the music jams and wherever we happened to see each other. I will watch for the date for the celebration of life. May your memories take some of the pain.

I send my sincere condolences during this time of sorrow. The Bible promises that your loved one will live again on a beautiful paradise earth when death will be no more. (John 5:28, 29; Revelation 21:4)

Joy and family, so sorry for your loss. May she RIP.

My heartfelt condolences to Wilma’s loved ones. My mother was a resident of Lakeland with Wilma, and Glynis is a friend of mine. I would always say hello to Wilma and she would grab my hand and smile. You could always find her in her “spot” in memory lane. She will be missed by all.

Going to miss you. Thank you for all our talks and time you spent with me going over old times about my Granny, and your sister Orlene, and coming out to hear me sing at the legion. May you rest in peace my dear Wilma.
