Mrs. Minnie Ola Wilborn

Minnie Ola Wilborn peacefully departed this life to join her heavenly Father on November 26, 2024, surrounded by the love and comfort of her cherished family. Born on May 24, 1933, to the late William Edward and Minnie Mae Robinson, Minnie lived a life rich in love, faith, and devotion. Mrs. Wilborn was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Mr. G.W. Wilborn, with whom she shared 25 wonderful years of marriage. She also mourned the loss of her son, Jerry Lynn Wilborn, and her grandson, Joshua Adam Collier. Additionally, she was preceded in death by her five brothers and three sisters, leaving behind a legacy of love and remembrance. She is survived by her daughter, Teresa (Steve) Peyton, who will carry forward her memories and teachings; her daughter-in-law, Bertha Phelps Wilborn; and her adopted daughter, Bonnie (Robert) Danis. Minnie took great joy in her role as a grandmother, and she is survived by numerous grandchildren: James (Debra) Collier Jr., Jeremiah William Collier, Jerry Lynn Wilborn Jr., William A. Wilborn, Tommy Lee Wilborn, Amanda Lee Danis, Brandie Lynn Danis, and Eric David Danis. She was also blessed with six great-grandchildren and seven great-great-grandchildren, all of whom brought her immense joy. Minnie had a special place in her heart for her dear friend, Justin Wagner, and his family, along with a host of close family and friends who will miss her deeply. Her incredible capacity for love extended beyond her family, as she had a unique gift for making anyone she met feel special and valued. Minnie never met a stranger; her warmth and kindness created an environment where people felt welcomed and understood. In conversations, she possessed the rare ability to focus entirely on the person she was speaking with, making them feel like the center of her world at that moment. These qualities are a testament to the greatness of her character. A visitation to honor Minnie’s life will be held at Holder-Wells Coastal Funeral Home, located at 12800, Highway 613 S, Moss Point, MS 39562. This will take place from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, followed by a funeral service celebrating her life. The committal ceremony will occur later in the day at 3:00 PM at Rocky Hill Church Cemetery. For those needing directions to the cemetery, the family will be available to assist. Holder-Wells Funeral Home, located at 12800 Highway 613 S, Moss Point, MS 39562, is honored to serve the Wilborn family during this difficult time of loss. As we remember Minnie Ola Wilborn, we kindly ask that you keep her family in your thoughts and prayers. May God's blessings be upon them as they navigate this journey of grief and remembrance.
