Mrs. Wilson was a member of the Marian Community (Betania II); also Sudbury Fish Coordinator for many years and member of the Christ Alive Bible Study. Upon her retirement, she took great joy in caring for her grandchildren as well as the children of Eric and Elizabeth Shealy of Sudbury, all of whom she loved dearly.
