of Conway, AR
May 31, 1924 - June 4, 2024
Wilma Pollard Busbee, 100, of Conway AR received her eternal reward June 4, 2024. Wilma was born May 31, 1924 in Clayton, New Mexico to the late George and Pearl Pollard. She was preceded in death by her daughter, Sharlene Martin; grandson, Jimmy Martin and a sister, Gordie Sides.
She was the beloved mother of Reggie Busbee of Grand Prairie, TX and Jannette Paladino of Conway and proud grandmother of Reggie Busbee Jr, Angela Sanchez, Debra Martin, Jonathan Paladino, Corey Paladino and thirteen great-grandchildren. She leaves behind her siblings that she loved dearly, Margaret Thurman, Georgia Sprott and James (Shirley) Pollard all of Conway; numerous nieces, nephews, friends as well as fellow brothers and sisters in Christ to celebrate her life.
Wilma was a faithful servant of God, worshipping with the Highway 65 Church of Christ in Conway, AR. Her joy at gathering together to sing songs and join together in fellowship was infectious. She never met a stranger and would greet anyone, from the church building to the Walmart parking lot. She was a dedicated nurse for the lntensive Care and Step Down units at the Conway Regional Medical Center where she cared for others in their hour of need until her retirement in 1996. After retirement she spent her time riding a lawnmower, tending to her flowers and spending time with the family she loved. She travelled across the country enjoying the beauty of God's world as she now enjoys the beauty of God's heaven.
Funeral services will be Monday, June 10, 2024 at 2:00 pm at Roller-McNutt Funeral home in Conway. She will then be laid to rest at the Crestlawn Memorial Park in Conway.

Wilma was such a sweet, kind sister in the Lord, and a 'half-step neighbor-in-law' to our physical family.
We've the hope that she is resting in Abraham's bosom awaiting the resurrection. Such a happy reunion.
Love all the family.

You all are in my thought and prayers. As much as she will be missed she has gone to her reward which I know offers much comfort. I will miss seeing her on my trips through that way.
All my love,
