Mrs. Wilson was preceded in death by her father: Ray Bible; grandparents: Essie Bible and Hubert and Bonnie Headrick; aunt: Hazel Alley; and cousins: Jimmy Headrick and Joyce Headrick.
Mrs. Wilson was a graduate of South Greene High School and Hamilton Business College. She worked for 30 years as an export specialist for Magnavox/Philips.
Mrs. Wilson was a Christian, and a member of Peoples Tabernacle Church. She loved her church and her church loved her. She took solace in talks with her pastor, David Tweed. David and the church loved to hear her piano playing fill the church.
Mrs. Wilson was an accomplished pianist; her music was at her fingertips and flowed from her soul. She was truly gifted. She had taken a few piano lessons as a child but did not allow them to interfere with her musical gift. Her playing was innate and inborn. If you asked her to show you a C cord, literally, she could not. However, ask her to play a song, any song, she would play it.
Mrs. Wilson loved all animals. It was not uncommon to come into the kitchen and see her washing dishes with one of her goats standing there watching. She greatly missed Bonnie, Essie, and Maggie, her dogs who preceded her in death.
