Bio

Wilma Laura (Nauert) Sparkman, born February 8, 1919 in Goldthwaite, Texas (Mills County), went home to be with the Lord, May 17, 2013. She was the daughter of Otto Nauert and Maggie (Schuster) Nauert. She married S.C,. (Cecil) Sparkman, December 2, 1937 in Pottsville, Texas (Hamilton County).

She taught us children, by her example, to love and follow her loving Lord, to always do our best and live an honest upright life. She was a devoted member of First Baptist, Morrilton, AR. She was also a member of Lewisburg Extension Homemakers Club (Morrilton) for a number of years and dearly enjoyed her time with her fellow members. Mother was preceded in death by her parents Otto and Maggie Nauert; husband, Cecil Sparkman; their first born son, Alvin Sparkman; three sisters, Ida Griffin, Hilda Nauert and Malinda Parker; and one brother, Henry Nauert.
