Wilma Vee (Dickenson) Coulter Obituary
Wilma Dickenson Coulter, of Janesville, passed away at home, surrounded by her family, on April 17, 2026, at the age of 75. Wilma was born on December 31, 1950, in Riceville, Iowa. She worked at Kahler Hotel Coffee Shop as a waitress in Rochester, Minnesota, waiting on many famous guests before spending years as a truck driver under the CB handler name “Ramblin Rose”. She then worked for General Motors Local #95 until her retirement in 2008.
She found joy in helping others and always found the good in people, even in their worst moments. Wilma also loved collecting antiques, which she sold in her store, the Forget-Me-Not_Shoppe. She was an avid gardener, carefully planning and designing her garden with each new year. She had a love of bird watching, with a particular fondness for bluebirds, hummingbirds, and rose-breasted grosbeak.
Wilma loved her family with every beat of her heart and was a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Spending time with her family was her greatest passion. She shared her love of antiques with her grandchildren on countless shopping trips to second-hand shops and auctions. In her later years, she enjoyed doing puzzles with her great-grandson Skylar and painting her nails, and playing dolls with her great-granddaughter Alexus.
She is survived by her daughters, Melisa (Terry) Hinojosa-Esparza, Stacy (Mike) Bodeau, and Abigail (Jesse) Dupre; grandchildren, Kirk (Angelita) Henry, Mercedes (Pete) Biehl, Allison (Corbyn) Dupre, and Jesse “JJ” Dupre; great-grandchildren, Skylar and Alexus Henry; siblings, Joyce and Willy; and countless relatives and friends. She is preceded in death by her late husband, Richard “Hot Foot” Henry, her parents Wilfred and Doris Dickenson; and siblings, Linda, Stanley, and Mary.
In lieu of memorials, the family would appreciate donations made to the Alzheimer’s Association.
“A heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.”
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
