She was born to the union of Harvey J. Williams, Sr. and Henry L. Jones, on May 18, 1954. in Marietta, Oklahoma, and accepted Christ as her Savior under the late Pastor, Rev.

She was later crowned the 2nd “Miss Black Dallas”. She was very honored and proud!!! This later landed her a small part in the movie “Logan’s Run.”
As previously stated, her love for people later landed her in the Medical Field at then the new, Medical City of Dallas Hospital, where she was the lead over Patient Admitting. Wanda later met and married her late husband,
Michael Wilmore, and to this union was born her one and only child, Michael “Vernis” Wilmore Sr. (Her Heart Beat).
