Leile Wilson

Anna Leile England Wilson, 82, passed away August 8, 2011, of natural causes at her home in Idaho Falls. Leile was born October 24, 1928, in her parent’s home on North Main, Tooele, Utah. She was the third child and only daughter of Franklin England and Mary Matilda Bolinder England. Leile (Lee) grew up in Tooele and graduated from Tooele High School in 1946. She married Elmer Gilbert Wilson on December 24, 1947, and their marriage was later solemnized in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on June 2, 1949. Lee was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. Lee worked alongside of her husband for 25 years at Wilson’s Texaco in Ammon. She also worked as a cook at the Ammon Elementary. Later she helped Elmer manage the Flat Rock Club in Island Park where countless memories were made with her children, grandchildren and friends. Lee and her family also enjoyed spending time at the family cabin in Island Park. She loved the gospel and gladly served in the church for many years in the Young Women’s program. She and Elmer also served an LDS mission in South Royalton, Vermont.
