She was born in Bracebridge, ON, on September 21,1922, the daughter of the late John and Ada (Meeks) Slater.

Wilma worked in retail throughout her life and last worked at Sears. She enjoyed the social aspect of being in retail and was always quick to lend a helping hand to the customers. The most important thing to Wilma was her family. She would often be seen in Riverside-Albert at Maple's Canteen assisting Donna and Ron any way she could. She had a very special place in her heart for her grandchildren and never wanted to miss any of the activities they were involved in; she was always there to support them. When her great grandchildren came along she was very happy and cherished all the memories she made with them. Wilma loved her family very much and was proud of everything they accomplished. She will be remembered for her kind and caring ways and her love of her family. She will live on in our hearts forever. "Family is where life begins and love never ends"
