Wilma graduated from Beaver Falls High School, Class of 1948. She was an extraordinary cook and baker, most famous for her chocolate chip cookies, and was always involved with and concerned about her family, her friends, her community and the world at large. She yearned for a happy future for her grandchildren and all future generations. She was looking forward to voting in the upcoming election to continue to do her part to ensure a better future for them.
