Mary Margaret Wilburn Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Mary Margaret Wilburn, 54, of Del City, Oklahoma passed away unexpectedly in her home in Del City on June 27, 2019. She was born on February 17, 1965 in Oklahoma City, the daughter of Kenneth and Evelyn Wilburn. Mary was a proud graduate of Del City High School and Rose State Junior College and had a diverse professional career that included working as an office clerk and an interstate truck driver. In those years, she accumulated many adventures and even more happy memories with a wide array of friends whom Mary readily embraced as part of her extended family. Even though Mary lost her vision towards the later years of her life, she never let that break her spirit and she rose above her vision loss to embrace being a member of the blind community, including being a founding member of the Independent Eagles for the Blind and Disabled Association. She was preceded in death by her parents Kenneth and Evelyn. Mary will be lovingly remembered by her brothers and sisters, Ken (Elaine), Susan (Dale), Angela (Michael), and Brenda (James). She will also be remembered by her nieces and nephews, Shirley (James), Kevin, Emily, Evelyn, Madeleine and Jonah. Services will be held at Ford Funeral Services, 305 S. Sooner Rd in Midwest City. Burial will follow immediately at Chapel Hill Cemetery in Oklahoma City. In lieu of flowers, the family of Mary respectfully ask that you please make a charitable donation in Mary’s name to either New View Oklahoma, which provided a creative support network for Mary, or to the Dean McGee Eye Institute.
