Paula Frances Wheeler

Paula Frances Wheeler, 55 of Fayetteville, WV, went to be with the Lord on April 20th, 2021 at home surrounded by loved ones. Born June 5th 1965 in Ayer Massachusetts, she was the daughter of the late Paul Hummel and Maxine Davis Hummel of Coal City, WV.

Paula was a huge advocate of family time and enjoyed nothing more than spending time with her grandchildren. Her favorite memories were shared around a softball diamond, a campfire, on the party barge, and at the beach. This time of year was her favorite time on the farm, and enjoyed welcoming friends and family to experience the new life and fresh air that Wheeler Farm had to offer. Her last days were spent surrounded by her family and friends on the farm under the care of Hospice of Southern West Virginia and Dr. Erika Beckett, who provided unwavering support and care throughout her diagnosis.

She spent her career providing care and compassion for her clients throughout southern West Virginia. Her devotion to her clients was shared by her coworkers to the point that it did not seem like work at all, but a family that cared.

Paula is survived by her husband David, her children Brooke Wheeler (Shane Foster) of Oak Hill and Morgan Stover (Jacob) of Beckley; Sisters Diane Worrells (Randy) of Grandview, Kathi Dickerson (Mike) of Fairdale, and Dolores Hutchens (James) of Coal City; Grandchildren Aidan Foster, Cameron Foster, Elysia Foster and one soon to arrive, Harlan Stover.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, April 24th from 6 PM to 8 PM at the funeral home. Funeral Services for Paula will be on Sunday, April 25th at 2 PM with Pastor Don Kelly officiating at Dodd-Payne-Hess Funeral Home in Fayetteville, WV.
