NEW HAVEN — Wilma May Boise, 82, of New Haven, passed away on Saturday, June 1, 2024. Wilma was born on Dec. 22, 1941, in Burlington, the daughter of Melvin and Lou Landon.

Wilma graduated from Beeman Academy in New Haven and lived on North Street in New Haven her entire life. She got great joy spending time with her family, who will miss her immensely.

She loved her flowers in the summer and riding with her husband Roger along the Vermont back roads in their dodge convertible car during leaf peeping season and endless antique treasure hunting.

Wilma was predeceased by her parents, Melvin and Lou Landon and her brother, William Landon.

She is survived by her husband, Roger of 63 years; her daughter, Melanie and her husband Timothy Paquette; son, Jason Boise and his wife Vicki (Phelps); granddaughters, Jessica Thibeault, Jennifer Delabruere, Alison Nadeau and Haley Currier; and five great-grandchildren, Logan, Carly, Luke, Wyatt and Emma.

A private family service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in her name to the New Haven Congregational Church. ◊
