Wilma Ruth Wesley Quire of Jeffersontown was born May 5,1938 in Louisville, Kentucky, and died on January 12, 2020. She was surrounded by her family as she took her last breath in this world, and her first breath in the arms of Jesus. In her early years, Wilma worked as a telephone operator where she met her husband Bob. They were about to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. She retired from the telephone company at the birth of her boys and spent the rest of her life loving and caring for her family. One of her greatest joys was attending sporting and theater events watching her sons, granddaughter, and grandson. Most times you heard her infectious laugh before you got to the venue. She was a member of Jeffersontown Christian Church, where she served as a member of the Diaconate, attaining the status of Diaconate Emeritus.
