Aline R. Wiley

Aline Raymonde Wiley, 79 of Memphis, Tennessee died peacefully on January 17th at her daughter's home.

She was born on April 4th, 1946, in Epinay Sur-Seine, France to Dan and Raymonde Dickinson. She graduated from Overton High School in 1964. She was a long-time member of St. James United Methodist Church, Crossroads United Methodist Church, and Peace Tree United Methodist Church.

She was an avid supporter of her children. Whether it was being room mom at school, chaperoning field trips, helping with youth functions at church, or being her children's biggest fan at sports games, being a mom was her life and she was the best. But her greatest joy in life was being Mawmaw to her eleven grandchildren.

Throughout her life, she was a devoted caretaker not only to her children, whom she raised with love and discipline, but a caretaker to many other children who she cared for with compassion and love and became Mawmaw to them as well.

Known for her strong will, she was a woman who led with conviction and heart. She was never afraid to speak her mind, and her strength inspired those around her to stand tall and persevere. Her legacy lives on in the values she instilled, the love she gave, and the lives she shaped.

She is survived by her children: Patrick Siano (Kim), Dayle Wiley (Chasity), Michael Wiley (Rachel), and Nikki Wilson (Robert); eleven grandchildren: Katherine Siano, Noah Siano(Beth), Matthew Siano, Emma Wiley, Abbie Wiley, Sarah Wiley, Richard Wiley, Daniel Moultrie, Kaitlyn Moultrie, Tyler Wilson, Eli Wilson; and one great grandson, Caspar Siano, that she was so excited to meet but was born several days after she passed away. Mawmaw is now watching over him from heaven.

Aline is preceded in death by her mother and father, Dan and Raymonde Dickinson and one brother, Danny Dickinson.

A visitation will be held on Sunday, February 1st at 1:00 p.m., and the memorial service will follow at 2:00 p.m. at Memorial Park Funeral Home and Cemetery, 5668 Poplar Avenue.
