Not sure what to say?

I will miss you Aunt Wilma. I enjoyed sharing emails and pictures with you.

wimmie was a very good aunt to me growing up i put kevin don because thats what she called me my mom was her twin sister wanda and we spent a lot of time going on trips visiting if mom wasnt there she would fill in her everytime mom and her were very close

She will be deeply missed. A constant presence in my church life from the day I was born 'til I moved away 22 years later. We kept in touch over the next 22 years. She was my friend, mentor, and prayer warrior. I am praying for the family for God's comforting arms around you all.

Sorry to hear about Wilma, My prayers are with the family

I am saddened to hear of Wilma's passing and pray that God will give her family and friends strength in this difficult time.

I'm sure going to miss Wilma, my sister and my friend. We exchanged e/m's every day and talked on the phone often. She's had a good life and God was ready for her and she was prepared to go. I love you girls and sorry we can't be there now. ROSA LEE
