Obituary

Wilma Lee Davis was born May 8, 1936 in Pinedale.  She was the first-born child to Bill and Magdalene (Toots) Bloom.  Wilma grew up on the Bloom ranch located on the Green River along with a brother Bill Bloom Jr., & sister Bonnie Bloom Alexander.

Wilma attended a rural school on the ranch until 7th grade.  She attended Wasatch Academy in Mt. Pleasant, UT for 3 years and finished her High School years in Pinedale.

After completing her requirements in airline training school, she met the love of her life Tuffy and they were married on April 20, 1955.

They moved to the Fredell Ranch owned by the Norris family.  They lived in an old house with a dirt roof and floor without indoor plumbing. Tad, their oldest son was born on November 21, 1957.  Holly their second child was born on January 11,1958. The house was upgraded to a single wide trailer with indoor plumbing and a clothesline!

Tim, born April 5, 1962 completed the family.

It didn't seem to matter what the house was like, Wilma always made it a clean and cozy home.

Wilma was a nurturing mother.  Tad was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at 5 years of age.  That required extra time and effort on Wilma's agenda, but she still enjoyed working on ranch with Tuffy.

Occasionally she worked at Helens Shop, a clothing store in town.  She loved to cook and sew.  She made the best homemade breads and candy.

Wilma passed peacefully in her home on May 16,2024.

She is survived by her brother Bill Bloom, sister Bonnie Alexander (Kip), daughter Holly Davis (Saul), son Tim, grandson Wacey, and 3 great grandchildren.

Proceeded in death by parents Bill and Toots Bloom, husband Tuffy Davis, and son Tad Davis
