I didn't know Ms. Wilhelm for very long, but she had a wonderful spirit and added lots of warmth to my workday. I am thinking about her and the loving family members I met.

Dear Stephanie and John,
Your Mother was a wonderful person! I have many loving memories of us together when we were young, She was so adventurous and had such a great sense of humor. I spent hours admiring all the Equestrian trophies and ribbons displayed in her bedroom and playing 45's on her Hi Fi, I so idolized my cousin!
Much love to you both from Tami, Bob & Sarajane Mullins

With love and sympathy,
