Vivian E. Wilhite

Vivian E. Wilhite, 93, lifetime resident of Creedmoor, Texas went to be with the Lord on February 23, 2016. She was born in Elroy, Texas on July 2, 1922 and was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Aubrey L. Wilhite; sister, Evelyn Kite and brother, Roland Burklund.

Vivian is survived by her son, Richard Wilhite and wife Lucile (Sam); daughter, Sue Schmidt and husband Bobby, daughter, Cindy Gilley and Richard Saldana; five grandchildren, Russell Wilhite and wife Mary, Alan Gilley and wife Rachel, Scott Wilhite and wife Vicki, Shelley Nelson and husband Michael, Sonny Schmidt and wife Wendy. She was also blessed with eleven great-grandchildren; Sonora, Kaila, Ryan, Madison, Stephen, Taylor, Cash, Addison, Bryn, Piper and Caymie; and one great-great-grandson, Bradley; in addition to countless friends, nieces and nephews.

She was known as "Granny" to everyone and always had a ready smile. Her family was her life and she was always there to help and give encouragement. She was a woman of great faith and her church family was very important to her. Granny will be dearly missed by her loved ones but celebrate the fact that she is at home with her heavenly father.

Baking was a favorite pastime of Granny's. Everyone loved her coconut-oatmeal cookies and her homemade brown bread and hot rolls were second to none.

Visitation will be held from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm on Thursday, February 25, 2016 at Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home, 2620 South Congress Avenue.

Funeral Service will be held at 10:00 am on Friday, February 26, 2016 at the Funeral Home Chapel.

Interment will follow at Masonic Cemetery.

The family would like to express their deep love and appreciation to her caregiver and wonderful friend, Mary Lou Juarez, for the extraordinary care and concern and love she gave to Granny and to our family. She is truly an angel. Many thanks also to Sylvia Ojeda, Sodalis Memory Care in Buda, and Compassionate Care Hospice for their loving care and compassion.
