GLORIA J. WILCOX

WILCOX GLORIA J. WILCOX Of Oakton, VA, went to be with the Lord on Friday, September 26, 2014 in Fairfax, VA after a short illness. She was born in Seattle, WA, on February 27, 1934. She served 27 accomplished years with the U.S. Forest Service and along the way earned an Associate of Business Arts degree from Northern Virginia Community College. She was a member of the Oakton United Methodist Church in Oakton, VA, and for a time served as the president of its chapter of United Methodist Women. She enjoyed traveling with her husband, watching the Washington Nationals, and spending time with her family and friends, and she always had an open cupboard policy with her grandchildren so they could enjoy the abundance of Gummy Bears and Bugles she had ready for them. She was classy, exuberant, and always caring, giving, and unconditionally loving. Her greatest joys were being with her husband and hearing about all the things her family was doing. She is survived by her adoring and devoted husband, Sterling Wilcox; daughters, Cheryl Robarge and Judith Winston; son, John-David Wenzlaff; son-in-law, David Robarge; stepchildren, Seth Wilcox, Poldi Dell and Susan Cole and their spouses, Sharon Wilcox, Jeff Dell and Stan Cole; grandchildren Matthew, Andrew, Sarah and Stephen Robarge; and step-grandchildren, Rachel Wilcox, Janie and Joe Dell, J.T. Holley and Tyler Cole. We all will miss her deeply. The family will receive friends at Oakton United Methodist Church, 2951 Chain Bridge Rd., Oakton, VA on Tuesday, September 30 from 10 a.m. until the funeral service at 11 a.m. Interment will be private.
