Wilda enjoyed camping and playing games with her husband, family and friends as well as knitting and sewing. During her younger years she enjoyed dancing, but most of all, she was a devoted and loving wife, mother and grandmother to her family and was a good and loving person to everyone she met. She was preceded in death in 1992 by her husband William Wayne Van Horn Sr. whom she married Dec. 2, 1946 and with whom she shared 45 years of marriage.

(Linda) Van Horn of Green Twp., Brenda (Robert) Martin of Lake Milton with whom she made her home, and Jane Ann Langley, 19 grandchildren, 23 great grandchildren, two brothers Floyd "Butch" (Judy) Reed Jr. of Austintown, and Johnny Reed of Akron and a sister Carolyn (Chuck) Rowland of Howland. She was preceded in death by her parents and husband. Calling hours will be Sunday evening from 6 until 8PM at the Roberts-Clark Funeral Chapel. The Rev. Rich Whipkey of the North Bloomfield Assembly of God Church will conduct a funeral service on Monday, March 8, 2010 at 11AM the funeral home. Burial will take place in the Meadowbrook Memorial Park.
