Billie Wildman Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 4, 2016.
Billie Ruth Wildman, 88, went to be with her Lord March 30, 2016.

She was born May 4, 1927 in Oklahoma to Leonna and Chester Brower.

Billie was a kindhearted woman who enjoyed spending time with her family and friends.

She loved to make homemade doughnuts, play Racko and Skipo, and "teach" her grandchildren and great grandchildren how to drive. She had the greatest sense of humor and loved to tell jokes. Every day was an adventure with this wonderful lady.

She made desserts for the homeless every Friday night for "Friday Night Live" until she became unable to do so.

Billie is preceded in death by her loving husband, Woodrow Wildman; her parents; sisters, Ivolean Hall and Margaret Merrick; brothers, Don Brower and Hershel Treadway; sister in law, Beulah Brower and brother in law Ned Ferbrache.

She is survived by her sister, Natolia "Toggy" Ferbrache; her five sons: Dan Wells, Larry Wells, Don Wells, Bill Wells, and Ray (Vivian) Wildman.

She is also survived by 14 grandchildren: Alex (Breana) Wildman, Amanda (Alder) Locke, Billy Wells, Chris (Noel) Wildman, Cory Wells, Crystal (Ken) Wright, Doni (Steve) Wangler, Earlene Shook, Fred (Kerry) Wells, Jimmy Wells, Joshua Wildman, Marcus Wells, Melissa (Richard) McCord, Tami Wells, and Tiffani (Tom) Partney and numerous great grandchildren whom she loved dearly.

Visitation will be held from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., Wednesday, April 6, 2016 at Langevin El Paraiso Funeral Home. A funeral service will be held at 11:00 a.m., Thursday, April 7, 2016 also at the funeral home, with burial following at West Hills Memorial Park.
