“100 Roses and 100 Cards” - Sacramento Alumnae Celebrates Centenarian Soror - Alma Wilson

The Sacramento Alumnae Chapter (SAC) had the distinct pleasure of honoring a great Centenarian Soror. On March 13, 2022, Soror Alma Wilson turned 100 years old! She has been a Delta for 79+ years. She was initiated through the Gamma Zeta Chapter on the campus of Morris Brown College in 1943. Soror Wilson has witnessed several historical events during her lifetime. She continues to share some of those stories with family, friends and sorors.

A great historical fact about Soror Wilson is after college; she became the wife of an original Tuskegee Airman, Mr. Robert D. Wilson, Sr., and was blessed with four children. She was also an educator in Sacramento for over 20 years. 40 She not only worked diligently in the chapter by holding various offices such as Chaplain, she worked and supported the Greater Sacramento Chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen by enforcing the organization’s purpose and that is to educate the public about the Tuskegee Airmen by providing facts, statistics, and personal historical perspectives on their true history and legacy through public outreach.

Soror Wilson has been a beacon of light and a great mentor to many Delta Divas and Dolls as well as her Delta Dear peers. She often shares how proud she is of the great Delta women we have become.
