She is survived by her brother, Fred Gibson and his wife, Janet, of Point Marion Road; her sister, Ruth A. Lynch and her husband John, of Chambersburg, Pa. along with several cousins, nieces and nephews, whom she loved very much, took great pride in their accomplishments and laughed at their antics.
In addition to her parents, Wilma is preceded in death by three brothers, Robert, Clyde and Ralph, and one sister, Lillian.
Private services were held followed by internment at Eden Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, donations are encouraged to be made in Wilma’s memory to Eden Cemetery, c/o Charles Gibson, 1690 Point Marion Road, Morgantown, WV 26508.
