Wilma K. Phelps of Roundhill, KY passed away at Christian Healthcare Center in Bowling Green, with family at her side on Thursday, September 22, 2022. She was 97 years old. Born to the late Estill and Trula Toms Keown, Wilma is also preceded in death by her loving husband of 44 years, Nicholas Phelps. She is survived by her cherished children Terry Phelps and his wife Dr. Vicky Lease of Bowling Green and Sharri Phelps-Womble and her husband Dr. Phillip C. Womble of Cottontown, TN; her dear sister Reva K. Stevens of Bowling Green and several beloved nieces and nephews. Wilma retired after more than 30 years working as a Teacher’s Aide and School Secretary with the Butler County Board of Education for the 4th District school. She loved caring for the schoolchildren and never missed an opportunity to extend her kindness to someone in need. Raised on a farm in Butler County, KY, Wilma was passionate about gardening and caring for her pets. She lived through many decades of change and was one to keep up with the times. In her spare time, you could find her enthralled in a challenging crossword puzzle or spending time with her family. The family of Ms. Wilma K.
