Wilma M. Stanley

July 15, 1952 — May 23, 2012

Wilma M. Stanley, age 59, of New Philadelphia, died Wednesday, May 23, 2012, in Union Hospital, Dover.

Born July 14, 1952, in Harmon, WV, she was a daughter of Vallie Davis Carr of Dover, and the late Paul Carr. Wilma graduated from Haysi High School in Dickenson County, VA, and shortly thereafter moved to Ohio. She was a homemaker, a loving mother and grandmother whose pride and joy was her young grandson, Kody. Wilma volunteered delivering Mobile Meals, and enjoyed growing and arranging flowers. She also liked following politics and discussing the issues of the day.

Survivors include her daughter, Joyce Ames of New Philadelphia; her grandson, Kody Ames; her sister, Donna Carr of Bath; her brother, Dennis Carr of Dover; her nephews, Wesley (Shannon) Shontz, Drew, Matt, and Nicky (Wilma's godson) Gutierrez; her great-nephews, Wesley Jr., Collin and Xavier.

In addition to her father, she was preceded in death by her sister, Susan Carr, and by a special aunt, Nellie Teter.

In keeping with Wilma's wishes, her remains have been donated to The Ohio State University for anatomical study. A private time of remembrance will be observed. To sign an online guestbook and share a fond memory of Wilma, please visit the Obituaries and Flowers link on the Toland-Herzig website.

The family suggests that contributions in Wilma's memory be made to Lifebanc, 4775 Richmond Rd., Cleveland, OH 44128. As the recipient of a kidney, Wilma understood the importance of organ donation, and whenever she could, encouraged others to become organ donors.
