Obituary of Belinda G. Wilson

Belinda Goble Wilson passed away on Saturday, March 16th, 2019, in upstate New York; she was 65. 

Belinda was born in Prestonsburg, KY, and raised in Allen, KY.   Fiercely independent and ever the adventurous spirit, she lived in Arizona, Florida twice, Alabama, and New York with stints in Kentucky in between. Belinda was a registered nurse who did missionary work in Costa Rica and particularly enjoyed the fast pace of the ER. 

Anyone who knew Belinda knew she was passionate about her dogs - Slinky, Rachel, Luke, and Ramsey, to name a few.  She was multi-talented with a keen eye for color and aesthetics.  Belinda was creative and artistic, and incredibly skillful with her hands, whether it was sewing, ceramics, gardening, or playing the piano.  Her favorite places in the world were the mountains of Kentucky where she grew up, and beaches of Florida.

Belinda was preceded in death by her parents Fannie and James Goble, and her son Stephen M. Wilson. She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law Adam M. Wilson-Hwang and Vivian Wilson-Hwang; her grandson Beckett M. Wilson-Hwang; her siblings James Goble, Sheila Griffith, and Sharon G. Neeley; and her nieces and nephews Angelia Neeley, Richard Neeley, Matthew Goble, Sarah McCoy, Andrew Griffith, and Andrea Griffith.

A celebration of Belinda's life will be held at 171 Cemetery Loop Road, Allen, KY on Saturday, April 27th at 2pm.  A picnic, will follow at Dewey Dam, shelter #4, Jenny Wiley State Park, Prestonsburg, Ky.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Belinda's memory to the ASPCA.
