Mrs. Wilma Jean Crump was born on April 8, 1930, to Mr. and Mrs. Viola and William Martin, in New Albany, Indiana. She was the youngest daughter of three children. She attended Scribner High School. Wilma accepted Jesus Christ at an early age and was baptized at the Howard Chapel Missionary Baptist Church, in New Albany, Indiana.
Wilma married the love of her life, Mr. Stuart Matthew Crump. Their commitment to each other spanned seven decades. To this union were born two daughters and a son. The family moved to San Diego, California. They became faithful members of the Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church, where Wilma sang in the United Choir and served on the Deaconess Board. Wilma was an extraordinary cook and hostess. Family holiday meals gave her so much joy. We will never forget the wonderful times, holding hands in prayer, and eating her delicious, scrumptious, dinners prepared with a mother’s love.
