Wilma Louise Moffat

Virginia Beach – Wilma L. Moffat, 84, passed away peacefully with her family at her side on August 23, 2010. A native of Pittsburgh, PA, she was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years, Paul James Moffat, Jr.; and also her parents, Sarah and James Dobbie of Irwin, PA.

She leaves to cherish her memory 3 children, a daughter, Karen Burns, and husband Jim, a son, Jim, and wife Kim, and a son, Bill, along with 6 grandchildren, Cathy, Jason, Jenni & Eddie, and Crystal & Michael. She is also survived by a sister, Jean Tharp of Berea, OH.

Wilma always had a smile for everyone and never complained. She retired from nursing after 40 years of caring for others in need, a perfect profession for her personality.
