Wilma Carberry April 20, 1955 - September 1, 2026

Passed away peacefully at Dr. G B Cross Memorial Hospital, Clarenville on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, Wilma Carberry of George’s Brook-Milton, age 71 years.

Predeceased by her father Frederick Carberry and sister Glenys Green.

Leaving to mourn with fond and loving memories are her children Lisa Mingo (Trevor), Trina Wagg (Perry) and Nadine Freake; 11 grandchildren; her mother Meleta Carberry; brother Maurice Carberry (Peggy); and a large circle of family and friends.

Resting at Fewer’s Funeral Home, Clarenville.  Visitation on Friday, September 4, 2026 from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m.  Funeral Service 2:00 p.m. Saturday at Fewer’s Memorial Chapel, Clarenville with cremation to follow.  Burial will take place at a later date.  In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to Clarenville Area SPCA.

Wilma was one of the toughest women we ever knew. She battled MS for many years, facing infections, hospital stays, and countless complications, yet she always seemed to find the strength to bounce back.  Through it all, Wilma remained positive and always found something to look forward to. She loved keeping her hands busy, whether she was doing Diamond Dotz, making sealskin purses, or, most recently, crocheting doll clothes. She also loved her grandchildren dearly and took great joy in watching them grow. Wilma had an incredible spirit and a determination that will never be forgotten. She will be dearly missed, and we will always cherish the memories and love she brought to our lives.

Rest peacefully, Wilma. You were one tough cookie.

Funeral Service 2:00 p.m. Saturday at Fewer’s Memorial Chapel, Clarenville with cremation to follow.  Burial will take place at a later date.

    Lisa, Trina, Nadine & Families, Meleta & Maurice.
    Deepest sympathy at this time. I have many happy memories of time spent at Sunday school and church activities. We shared many a meal together and she was a fighter. Despite many medical issues she was never deterred from living life to the fullest. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

    I send my deepest condolences on the loss of your Mom, Grandmother, Daughter and Sister.
    It’s been a few years since I’ve seen Wilma however the last time I visited we reminisced our younger years growing up in Milton being that we lived across the road for many years and how we once knew everyone in Milton….Wilma may have been in pain during my visit however if she was, she didn’t show it. She was always as pleasant as a pea. She will certainly be forever loved and missed by her family……and yes, she was definitely one tough cookie….RIP Wilma 🙏
