On February 21, 2022 Joan Higdon Wilhelm (age 88) passed into Glory with her Lord Jesus. We had 66+ years of outstanding love, passion, pleasure and family cooperation and growth. Leaving behind her are three children, Mark (Dawn), Sue Wheatley (Richard) and Gregg (Marik), nine grandchildren and one great-granddaughter, one sister-in-law (Eunice Turek) and one loving former daughter-in-law ( Leslee Masters).
Joan was a bank teller early on, and after marriage, a consummate mother. She was a complete Hampdenite, never living more than four city blocks from her birthplace. She was a strong and faithful member of the Woodberry Church of the Brethren.
She always fondly remembered her days on the avenue, the Hampden/Ideal movies, the New System Bakery, and Cavaco’s drugstore, her days at #55, Roland Park Junior High and Eastern High School.
Beside her family she leaves a host of dear close and long-time friends including Joyce Burnett and Nancy Ricks.
She is abundantly missed and can never be replaced. May God embrace her company.
Lovingly, Fred
