wilma kay conrad

Wilma Kay Conrad, a beloved mother, sister, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully in her sleep on September 18, 2026. Born on December 17, 1947, in Cheyenne, Wyoming, Wilma was the cherished daughter of the late Victor and Nellie Conrad. Wilma grew up in a loving home, surrounded by her siblings, Victor (Leroy) Conrad, Robert Conrad, Marvin Conrad, Gretna Hutton, Dixie Zalvala, and Marlene Melin. She graduated from Sheldon High School in 1965, a milestone she held dearly as it marked the beginning of her lifelong dedication to family and her community. As a devoted homemaker, Wilma's greatest joy was found in nurturing her children, Teri Conrad and Clark Conrad. Her nurturing spirit extended beyond her immediate family, as she was a proud grandmother to seven grandchildren, each of whom she adored and cherished deeply. Wilma's heart was as warm as her hands were skillful. She found immense pleasure in embroidering, creating beautiful pieces that became treasured keepsakes for those she loved. Her love for the game UNO was well-known among family and friends, as she brought a special kind of joy and laughter to each gathering with her playful spirit and competitive edge. Wilma was preceded in death by her parents, Victor and Nellie Conrad, and her brothers, Victor (Leroy) Conrad, Robert Conrad, and Marvin Conrad. She leaves behind her loving children, Teri and Clark, her dear sisters, Gretna, Dixie, and Marlene, and a legacy of love in her grandchildren. In this time of loss, Wilma's children wish to extend a heartfelt thank you and a big hug to Samatha Ryan for her unwavering companionship and support to Wilma over the years when her children could not be by her side. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to a charity of your choice, in honor of Wilma's compassionate and giving nature. Wilma's life was a testament to love, family, and the small joys that make life beautiful. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who were fortunate enough to know her.
