She is survived by her three daughters, Ingrid E. Davis (Scott), of Huntington, WV, Kirsten M. Sicheri of Morgantown, WV and Gretchen E. Mitchell (Chad) of Hagerstown, MD; two brothers, John F. O’Brien (Maria) of Akron, OH; and William H. O’Brien (Judy) of Scottsdale, AZ; six grandchildren, Leah K. Midcap (Eric), Jacob T. Mitchell (Irene), Lauren E. Davis, Benjamin P. Mitchell (Bailey), C. Scotty Davis (Danielle), and Samual P. Mitchell; and, one great grandchild, Lillian K. Midcap. Preceded in death by her loving husband of 43 years, Thomas B. Wilkins, her parents, and siblings, Eileen R. O’Brien, James H. O’Brien (Chris), Frederick W. O’Brien, Jr. (Doris), Bernard K. O’Brien (Freda), and Joseph O’Brien.
