Wilma I. Crouch

Wilma I. Crouch, age 89, passed away on Thursday, July 27, 2017 at Palm Garden Nursing Home in Sun City Center, under the care of a compassionate and loving staff. From her birth in Hickory Flat, Mississippi on June 16, 1928 to her death she was known for her love of people, music and her unwavering faith. She was born on a farm to Ernest and Mary Crouch, sharing her home with a house full of siblings, she is survived by her siblings, Bill Crouch, Audrey Arnolt, Earlene and Bill Farmer, and Arles Crouch. She had a zest for life and danced her way through this world with tenacity. After years of staying at home to raise her children she decided to attend Cosmetology school and embarked on an entrepreneurial path of her ownership of beauty salons across Florida, from Tampa to Cocoa. A loving and devoted mother, she is survived by her children Ron Moore, Sheila and Randy Miller, Paula and Daryl Huffman and was predeceased by her children Gary Moore and John Woods. Fondly remembered as the fun loving Grandma Wilma, she is survived by her grandchildren, Crystal Miller and Boris Fridkin , Casie and Frank Maldanado, Nick Huffman, Miranda Huffman and her great-grandchildren Leilani Lopez and Cristiano Maldanado. Although later in her life a stroke confined her to a wheelchair and bed she continued to take charge of her situation and hold on to her independent nature that had served her so well in life. Wilma will be missed by her friends and family here on earth but they all rejoice in knowing that she is now in heaven with Jesus, happily reunited with loved ones, and dancing with pure joy.
