She had a tendency to always see the good in life and rarely did you see her without her ear to ear smile. She was preceded in death by her husband, John (March 11, 1991); and son, Billy Thompson; 3 brothers and 2 sisters. She is survived by her son, Mark Wilkins of Bakersfield; sisters, Rosie and husband, Neal Anderson and Ruby Reeves all of Bakersfield.
