Wilma Goins, aged 82, passed away on March 1, 2024, after an extended illness. Born June 9,
1941, in Koln, Germany, she was raised during and in the aftermath of WWII and was very
proud of her heritage. Upon moving to the US in the early 1970s, she thrived as a proud citizen.
Wilma was admired for her independence, perseverance, intelligence and beauty. A savvy
entrepreneur, she built a successful career in the pet industry and other businesses over the
years. She had a deep appreciation for history, the arts, and antiques which she instilled in her
children. All her life Wilma was an advocate for people and animals, volunteering for several
community organizations. Her presence will be profoundly missed by her family and all who
were blessed to know her.
She was predeceased by her parents, her sister and brother, and daughter, Patty. She is
survived by her son, Cary, and his wife, Veronica, along with her grandchildren and great-
granddaughters.
A private service was held by her family.
