About | On Wednesday, March 9, 2016 Earlene Wilson went to be with her Lord and Savior. Our family takes comfort in knowing she will be welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven. She was a loving, devoted wife, married over fifty years to her high school sweetheart, Bob. They first met at Eisenhower High School, which they both graduated from (Earlene-1962 and Bob-1960). Earlene received her AA degree from Yakima Valley Community College. She adored her family, and she and Bob raised two children, Rob and Christy. Earlene loved helping people, loved animals, and loved to be outside tending to her rose garden. She was patient, kind, loving and loyal. She retired from the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries just over two years ago after working there almost 30 years. Her coworkers were like a second family to her. She leaves behind her husband, Robert Wilson; her children, Rob Wilson and Christy King, her son-in-law, Jeff King; her brothers-in-law, Richard Wilson, Francis Wilson, Ron Wilson, her sisters-in-law, Barbara Austin, Beverly Roy and Irene Wilson; her aunt Johnie Hart and uncle Bob Hart; her cousins, her nieces and nephews and many friends. She is missed dearly and loved by many.
