With profound sadness we announce the passing of Mary (Holman) Weir-Wommack, our loving mother, sister, aunt and friend to whose lives she touched. Her words of encouragement, wisdom and comfort always gave us strength in a time of weakness.
Mary W. Wommack, 91, of Crawfordsville passed away Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022, at Bickford Memory Care. She was born April 9, 1931, to the late Minzy Holman and Corene (Totten) Silbernagel.
Mary married Kenneth Weir on June 5, 1948, and together they had three children. His life was short lived, and he preceded her in death in January 1977. She then married Johnny Wommack in July 1984, sharing 12 years of marriage and many travels. He preceded her in death April 26, 1997. Her third companion, Al Obermiller, they had pleasures of seeking treasures along the routes of travel. Finally, a special friend, Wendall Cope, they spent many hours listening to music and prayer. He was a good friend to fill the quiet years.
She was a member of Whitesville Christian Church, as well as the Order of Eastern Star, Crawfordsville Firefighters Auxiliary and Fraternal Order of the Eagles Auxiliary 1005. She was past Madam President and was awarded the high honor of Mrs. Eagle. She held many office chairs and was proud to be part of the Eagles Motto “People helping People.” She enjoyed the club and the many friends she made.
Mary was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She especially loved the role of Grams! She had strong and caring personality and always made friends everywhere she went.
Her life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, Ephesians 4:32, “And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ.”
She is survived by daughter Michele (Randy) Borden; daughter-in-law Elaine Weir; two grandchildren, Ashley (Ryan) Tice and Andrew (Anne) Borden; great-granddaughters, Taylor and Alexandria Tice; step-grandson Tony Hamm; step-great-grandchildren, Eric and Sydney Hamm; sisters Becky Gaphart of Jasper and Marlene (Billy Gruff) Holman of Gainesville, Florida; brother-in-law Mike Czwormiak of Chicago; lifelong special friends, Fred and Twylo Davis; and special niece and nephew, Mark Gibson and Alicia Webb.
Mary was preceded in death by her parents; spouses, Kenneth Weir, Johnny Wommack and Al Obermiller; sons, Dennis and Derrick Weir; sister Patsy Czworniak; brother Sonny Holman; best friend, Doris Davis; step-grandson Michael Hamm.
The family would like to give a special thank you to the staff at Whitlock Place and Bickford Memory Care for taking excellent care of Mary. She adored the many staff members who cared for her during her time there.
