Wilma M. Green
On December 20, 1934, was born to Lillie V. McKinney and Chester McKinney, Fayette County. Wilma accepted Christ as her personal savior. She worked with TVA for years as a Production Worker.
Wilma attended Union Baptist Church where she was a dedicated head usher until her health failed and was not able to attend. On Friday evening, August 26, 2016, at 6:15 P.M. she peacefully closed her eyes at her home and God took her spirit to rest eternally with him. The void of her physical presence has already touched the hearts of the family and friends that survived her. Wilma leaves to cherish her fond memories, two children; Hilda Taylor and Charles Taylor both of Memphis, a loving sister, Mae Willie Jones (Moscow, Tennessee), four granddaughters; Vickie Taylor, Nicole Finley, LaTaveya Taylor and Evelyn Taylor (Detroit, Michigan), seven great-grandchildren; Jasmine Lewis, Cameron Terrell, Nikko Rice, Yvette Finley, Davaron Taylor, Anthony Taylor, Jr., and Christian Taylor (Detroit, Michigan) and one great-great-grandson Devaron Taylor, Jr. Wilma had seven sisters and three brothers that proceeded her in death. A host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends, a special friend and neighbor Faye Johnson, two special nieces Shelia and Meosha McKinney, a special friend and caregiver Ms. Anna Fields. Wilma Green kept the faith and fought a good fight. She enjoyed the company of her neighbors, family and sitting out on her porch.
