Elizabeth "Betty" Jane Wilson

Formerly of Chatham Village on Mt. Washington, on Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Beloved wife of John Z. (Jack) Wilson, of 63 years; loving mother of Jack Wilson, Greg (Patty) Wilson, Mary Beth (Eric) St. Clair and Carolyn (Scott) Glace. Betty Jane was the cherished grandmother to Greg (Laura) Wilson, Jr., Kelly Wilson, Laura St. Clair, Alexandra St. Clair, Vaughn Glace, and Addison Glace; great-grandmother to Ethan Wilson and Eloise Wilson; sister of George (the late Bernice) Schumacher of Stockton, CA; and numerous nieces and nephews. Betty Jane will always be remembered for her smiles, generosity, and strength as she lived her life committed to her family and her faith in God, along with her pets. As a result of her love for Duquesne University as secretary of the English Department, her children earned numerous degrees from the University. Two of her grandchildren plus spouses also achieved diplomas. Betty Jane herself earned a BA of Sociology when she was 61 years of age from Duquesne. She was a Eucharistic minister for St. Mary of the Mount and volunteered as a "babyholder" for medically fragile infants at the Children's Home of Pgh. The family would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the staff of Fair Oaks who took care of our wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother and helped her through her later years.
