“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.” – Buddha
And such was the way Wilma Dippman lived. To know her was to be touched by her. Whether it was from her time working in the kitchen at the Oregon Fire Station No. 1 chicken BBQ’s, the St. Ignatius Festival BBQ’s or simply seeing her at the grocery store, people’s lives were better for having known her.
A loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother, Wilma did everything in her power to brighten and enhance the lives of the many she touched.
Wilma was a graduate of Waite High School, was active with the Oregon Fire Department’s Ladies Auxiliary, playing water ball and working at the BBQ’s, the St. Ignatius Church festivals and enjoyed traveling the country with her husband, Ray, in their RV.
Wilma passed away, surrounded by her loving family. She was preceded in death by her husband of 58 years, Ray Dippman; parents, Richard and Arzella Myrice; brothers, Lyle, Harry and Butch Myrice and daughter, Joni Nowaczyk. Surviving are her sister, Bonnie (Jack) Giroux; her children, Jeff (Becky) Dippman, Bill Dippman, Linda (Tim) Henegar, Jeri (Joe) Rayner, Joe (Jeanne Hintz) Dippman and John (Crystal) Dippman and son-in-law, Mike Nowaczyk. Wilma also leaves her memories with 20 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, 1 great-great-grandchild and many nieces, nephews and friends.

“Grandma, you have touched our lives in ways that we could never imagine to repay, and as you wished us every time we parted, we would like to wish to you, ‘Have a happy’ and we promise to always ‘sit up in the buggy’”.
