It is with a mix of sadness and joy that we announce the passing of Malley Virginia Wilson, 86, of Saginaw, who left this world peacefully surrounded by her family.

Malley met the love of her life, Bernie, at just 15 years old, and with her parents' permission, they were married on February 26, 1955. Together, they embarked on a journey filled with love, laughter, and countless adventures.

Malley was not just a devoted wife and mother; she also had a passion for crochet and needlepoint. Whether she was crafting a cozy scarf or a beautiful doily, Malley's enthusiasm for life was contagious. She approached every moment with genuine warmth, making everyone around her feel special.

Malley and Bernie spent their lives traveling and camping, roaming the country and creating beautiful memories along the way. They were blessed with five wonderful daughters, who carry on their legacy of love and adventure. As Bernie retired at the young age of 55, the couple fulfilled their dream of traveling extensively, relishing life's simple pleasures.

Malley has rejoined her beloved Bernie; their daughter, Bernice; and her parents and all her siblings.

Malley is survived by her daughters, Debbie (Bob) Fish, Judy (Jim) Olson, Wendy (Larry) Hicks, and Connie (Joel) Westphal; and numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandson.

Private family viewing to be held at Sunrise Funeral Home before she is laid to rest with Bernie. A Celebration of Life Gathering will be held on Wednesday, April 9th from 5:00 - 7:00 PM at her daughter Judy's home, 5231 Munger Shaw Rd, Saginaw.
