Our deepest sympathies to the family. Wilma was a member of the American Legion Auxiliary here in La Feria. She was a joyful lady and spread happiness (and a joke or two) to all. May she have many perfect cribbage hands in heaven.

My deepest sympathy to all who loved and will miss Wilma. She experienced some heartaches in life, but her strong faith in God helped her to overcome and live a full and enjoyable life. She was a fearless traveler, accompanied by her dogs all named "Susie". She was an excellent crafter, loved to do jigsaw puzzles,tell jokes and support her Phillies baseball team.She was the kindest, most non-judgmental lady I knew. I will greatly miss her and her contacts, but my heart is full of many happy memories.
With Sympathy,
Marlyn Sweeten.
