Ola Mae Lamb-Wilson

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Ola Mae Lamb-Wilson, 71, of Tallahassee, Fla., formerly of Meadville, passed away Monday, June 22, 2009, at home.

For more than 40 years, Ola Mae was a devoted, hard-working, self-employed housekeeper who took pride in her domestic work. She attended schools in Midway and was converted at an early age. Ola Mae’s hobbies included sewing, fishing and playing bingo, but her greatest joy was spending time with her grandchildren.

Lauderdale, Fla., Marjorie Lamb-Vactor, Emma Lamb-Lee, Amy Lamb, Annie Lamb-Houston, Mary Lamb and her companion, Ted, all of Midway; five brothers, Elijah Lamb, Robert Lamb and his wife, Katherine, both of Tallahassee, Eugene Lamb Jr. and his wife, Deloris, Charles Lamb and his wife, Diane, both of Midway, and Willie Lamb Sr. and his wife, Vivian, of Bainbridge, Ga.; three sisters-in-law, Margaret Lamb of Midway, Annette Bishop of Erie and Heddy Keith of Milwaukee, Wis.; and a host of nieces, nephews and friends.

In addition to her husband, Gerald, and her parents, Ola Mae was preceded in death by three brothers, Lewis Parker Sr., Roosevelt Lamb Sr. and Cecil Lamb.

Family and friends are invited to call on Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Stephen P. Mizner Funeral Home & Cremation Services Inc., 404 Chestnut St., Meadville, where a Home Going Service will be conducted at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, with the Rev. Berta Newsome, pastor of United Faith Fellowship Church, officiating.
