Adele WILBUR Obituary
Adele Afram Wilbur, 76, of Mountain City, Texas passed away March 21, 2016 in the company of her loving husband, Philip Eugene Wilbur and son, Steven Wilbur and wife, Melissa.
Adele was born September 6, 1939 to Jabra and Martha Afram in Bethlehem, in what was then British Mandate Palestine. Adele was a citizen of the world, living in many of history's most storied cities before becoming an American citizen, loving wife, and caring mother.
Her intelligence, strength of character, and selflessness will long outlive her in her art, her students, and her grateful friends and family.
A Celebration of Adele's Life will be held at 10:00 A.M., Friday, March 25, 2016, in the Chapel of Cook-Walden/Forest Oaks Funeral Home.
