Wanda was born December 12, 1929 in Henderson, Texas. She married the love of her life, Billy Joe Young, January 17, 1959 and celebrated 62 wonderful years of marriage prior to Billy's death on June 21, 2021.
Wanda was a faithful member of Mobberly Baptist Church since the early 1960's. She taught children's Sunday School and Children's Choir. Wanda was a devoted member of the Mobberly Adult Choir for over 40 years. She dearly loved her life-long, precious friends in the Prime Time Small Group.
Wanda Jo Young passed from her earthly life and entered into eternity with her Lord and Savior, the morning of April 20, 2022 where she was reunited with her husband, Billy Joe Young as well as her parents, Prue and Ethyl Gladyce Tate, brothers and sister-in-laws, Rex and Judy Tate, Philmer "Cooter" and Teenie Tate, and Milford and Jean Tate and nephews Carl and Bruce Tate. Family left to cherish her memories are her children, Roger Moore of Henderson, TX , Jana and Mike Campbell of Longview, TX and Mandy and Scott Hensell of Flower Mound, TX. Fourteen grandchildren, twenty-nine great grandchildren, and 2 great-great grandchildren as well as several nieces and nephews.
The family appreciates the care provided by Heartis Senior Living and to Mom's "Favorite" care-giver, Jessica Marcano. We also are thankful to Traditions Hospice for their services of care, comfort and chaplain Wayne Norvell’s visits with our Mom.
In lieu of flowers, Mom would love for donations to be made to Perkin's Partnership Ministries or Mobberly Baptist Church.
