BESSIE WIMER WAGNER

Bessie Wimer Wagner, born Sept. 18, 1924, died Tues., Feb. 18, 2014, at her home in Florala. Wagner will be most remembered for what she considered her “calling” as a nurse. She was a registered nurse at Florala Memorial Hospital and Mizell Memorial Hospital in Opp. She was a source of advice and comfort, just a phone call away for friends and neighbors.

Wagner was preceded in death by her husband of 59 years, Paul Wagner; son, Van Wagner; brothers, Loyal and Gaylord Wimer; and sister, Jean Wimer Nye.

In marriage and business together, the Wagners opened their home to people far and wide.

Wagner is survived by a brother, Ed Wimer of Rose Point, Pa.; two children, Tim Wagner of Lebanon, Maine and Saxon Poppell of Florala; nine grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; three great-great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
