Wilma Jean Henneman

Wilma Henneman, age 85, of Walbridge passed away on Tuesday, October 24. She was born in Middlesboro, KY to Edward and Martha Gibson on September 11, 1938. She grew up in Jellico, TN and moved to Toledo when she was 14. She worked at Burndy Corp for 19 years, and at Walbridge Coatings for 22 years.
