Oh how I have so many memories of working with Wilma. We had some good times. I loved hearing about her days of dancing with her husband and then all her trips to NYC. I have thought of her often over the years.

Wilma was an elegant and classy women: I lovingly called her Aunt Wilma.
She was a ferocious reader... reading three to five books a month.
I will miss the many, many moments we shared talking about the books you read, politics, everyday life and our beloved pets, especially Pollyanna (Polly).
I love you Aunt Wilma and miss you!
