Patricia Kathryn Ottinger Wilson (82) left this earthly realm on Sunday May 6, 2018 after a brief decline in her health, to join her husband in heaven. She is survived by her daughter Kathryn Conley, granddaughters Kat Marine and Samantha Conley, her sister Donna Kay Bauer, niece Kelly Baker Klipp(Marty), nephews Brad Baker and Jami Baker(Denise), son Nathan Wilson, and multiple extended family members in Indiana. Pat was a former nursing instructor at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in Lafayette,IN and Johnston –Willis Hospital in Richmond,VA. Her nursing career spanned nearly 40 years. She initially desired to serve as a missionary nurse to Africa and consistently studied and used her medical knowledge to educate and assist others. Her fondness for sewing and crafts occupied her time and allowed her to share her gifts with so many others in her life. She loved to see her family and friends spread cheer and fellowship of the Bavarian customs of folk dancing , frequently assisting in the making of traditional dirndls for friends and family. Her faith was her crowning glory and her quiet study and prayer life was a model for many others as she served as a pastor’s wife and faithful church member in numerous congregations where her husband Dale Wilson was assigned. Her ultimate wish was for her family and loved ones to become believers in Jesus Christ and be prepared for His Kingdom. May she dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
