Gloria Wilson Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
She was born in her family home in the hills of Thurmon, West Virginia on November 10, 1939. From those humble beginnings she went on to travel the world supporting the U.S. Military, which she loved passionately, as an Army Contractor. Kay loved her Lord, Jesus Christ, she was deeply patriotic and loved her country as well as her family, both blood relation, and the numerous "adopted" daughters and sons she claimed as her own.
She is survived by her children Rick Wilson (Carol), Kim Wright (Tim), David Wilson (Alanna) and Kelly Wilson. She has eight grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. She was "Mommom" to every child whose life she touched.
A celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, August 24th 2024 at 11 a.m. at The Branch of Emmanuel Community Church, 7227 Biettersweet Moors, Fort Wayne, IN 46814.
In lieu of flowers, Kay would appreciate donations to The Tunnel to Towers Foundation. You can do so by visiting t2t.org.
