Louise "Weegi" Wilson
November 14, 1946 - December 26, 2017
Resident of Saratoga
Louise "Weegi" S. Wilson passed away peacefully surrounded by her family and friends on December 26, 2017 in Saratoga, CA. She was born on November 14, 1946 in Washington DC. She graduated from Gaithersburg High School in Gaithersburg, MD in 1964, and from Maryland General Nursing School in Baltimore, MD in 1967. She obtained a Bachelor of Science in Health Arts in 1981 from the University of St. Francis in Joliet, IL.
Weegi met Tom Wilson in Ocean City, MD, they married in 1968 and in 1969 they moved to Silicon Valley. They had their only child, Brianna Lynn on April 20, 1982.
She volunteered for many organizations including Mom's in Touch, Saratoga Federated Church, Care Deacons, homeless shelters, and several bible study groups including Bible Study Fellowship and Community Bible Study. She worked at five hospitals and phone advice centers before retiring in 1994.
In 2007 at the age of 60, Weegi was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer. She fought a brave battle for 11 years and had numerous procedures and operations during which she never complained and said that "it was an honor to be on this journey with the Lord." Her journey inspired countless others.
She enjoyed life to the fullest including her love of nature, especially the ocean and the beach, animals, travel, reading, bible study, dining with family and friends, and in recent years her grandchildren in Santa Barbara, which became her second home. Her greatest love was giving her love, laughter, time and heart to, and with, others, from all walks of life.
Weegi is survived by her loving husband, Thomas Wilson, her daughter, Brianna Spells (Barrett) of Santa Barbara and her grandchildren, Elliot and Adeline.
A Funeral Service will be held at 1 pm on Saturday, January 27, 2018 at Saratoga Federated Church, 20390 Park Place, Saratoga.
Donations in her name may be sent to the family in the name of the Saratoga Federated Church Sustenance Fund and The Sovereign Order of St. Johns Hospitaller.

I love you, Weegi. I will forever cherish your friendship and love. There is no other person in this world like you. I miss you so much, but I find comfort in knowing that you're free from any discomfort and you're in the arms of the Lord. I will continue to keep Tom, Brie, and the little ones in my prayers. Until we meet again
