Wilma Lee Fitzpatrick

Wilma Lee Fitzpatrick, age 72, departed this world and entered into her heavenly home on Wednesday, November 1, 2023 at Three Rivers Hospital in Louisa, Kentucky. She peacefully entered eternal rest while surrounded by her dearest loved ones. Wilma was born at home in Kermit, WV on February 9, 1951 to the late Thomas and Hazel Fitzpatrick. Wilma leaves behind the following to cherish her loving memory: her loving sisters, Carolyn Fitzpatrick and Shirley Horn of Kermit, WV, her brother Virgil Fitzpatrick and his wife Mary and of Kermit, WV, sister-in-law Lib Fitzpatrick of Kermit, WV, and her beloved niece and caregiver, who was like her daughter, Tonya Vance. She also leaves behind her dearest friend, who was like her sister, LeVera Hurst of Florida, along with countless loving other nieces, nephews, cousins, and close friends and family that she loved more than anything. Wilma is welcomed into her eternal home by her mother Hazel and father Tom Fitzpatrick, sister Dorena Fitzpatrick, brothers Anthony Ray “Puckett” Fitzpatrick, Leander Fitzpatrick, and Ronald “Slab” Fitzpatrick, brother-in-law Haskel Horn, great niece Kaydence Maynard, and numerous other family members and friends. Wilma was a working woman, working her entire life. She worked for years as a factory member at the BAE factory in Jefferson, Tennessee, along with working many years at the Mingo County Courthouse and being part owner of Fitzpatrick Contracting. She devoted her life to family, friends, and work. Wilma was, to say the least, a spitfire and the life of the party. Everyone that knew her describes her as fun, outgoing, and happy – there was never a dull moment with her around. She loved her babies with her whole heart and made sure they knew it. She enjoyed shopping at TJ Maxx, which was her favorite store, getting her hair done with her niece Adreana Kirk regularly, the holidays, and being surrounded by her closest loved ones. She attended Rosetown Freewill Baptist Church and was a member there for many years. The family and friends of Wilma are heartbroken, but at peace knowing she is in a better place with family she yearned to see. Visitation will be on November 3, 2023 from 6:00 pm-9:00pm with a service beginning at 7:00 pm. Funeral Services will be held Saturday, November 4, 2023 at 11:00am with burial to follow, being led and preached by Pastor Kenneth Allen. The services will be held at Neely Branch United Baptist on Marrowbone Creek, WV and her final resting place will be Newsome Cemetery. We here at Chafin Funeral Home are honored to serve this loving family throughout their difficult time.
