Vilma was born in Tampa, Florida to Frank and Rose Lopez. She was a graduate of the Academy of Holy Names in Tampa. Married Donald Whitlock and raised 3 daughters. She worked in management in the Property/Leasing Industry. Vilma was extremely outgoing and loved to dance. She studied ballet and enjoyed round dancing well into her golden years. She also was a skilled seamstress and loved her many cats.
Vilma is preceded in death by her husband, Donald Whitlock and grandson, Chase Brownfield. She is survived by her 3 daughters, Kim Trotter (Jim), Jill McGillis, Sue Selmic (Ratsko), 7 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren.
Vilma, rest in peace with our Lord, and may your zest for life and laughter be in the hearts of all who knew you.
