Loretta Wilson

Loretta Wilson, passed away on January 18, 2024 in her home in Mcloud, Oklahoma. She was born on May 17, 1936 to Ruby Penn and Roy Murphy in Missouri.

Loretta had worked various jobs, including Bell Telephone in Kansas, Walmart for a number of years, traveled the country with Delmar and had sold Avon on the side. Even though she was busy with work and life, she had always made time for her family. Loretta enjoyed family first; she also enjoyed fishing, square dancing, playing her banjo and reading.
