Wilmer L. Broxton, 78, of Panama City, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, September 24, 2025. He was born on January 15, 1947, and was a resident of Panama City.

Wilmer loved to go fishing and was a devoted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He was known for his kind and gentle nature, always treating others with the same respect and care he wished for himself. His presence will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, David S. and Louise Broxton; his daughter, Cumberley Broxton; and his siblings.

Those left to cherish his memory include his loving wife, Ann Broxton; his sons, Wilmer Broxton, Jr. (Angie) and Paul David Broxton; and his grandson, Chandler Broxton.

In keeping with Wilmer's wishes, memorialization will be by cremation.
