If light could be a person

If love would never die

If laughter healed a broken heart

If we never said goodbye

Her everlasting spirit

Her warm and vibrant smile

Her silly sense of humor

Her classy sense of style.

A love for music pure and true

A heart made out of gold

A friend to last the ages

A story never left untold.

She was proud and loyal to the end

She always showed she cared

She gave us the most important gift of all

Memories to be shared….

Wilma was preceded in death by her parents and husband, Ernst Knecht.

Surviving is her loving family, Barb and Dan, Dale, Laura and Hunter, Marianne, Jerud, Matthew, and Mason.

In accordance with Wilma’s wishes cremation will be conducted and a private family celebration of her life will be held.
