Wilson
August 10, 1928 – December 24, 2021
Movoureene "Boogie" Wilson of Dearborn, Michigan passed away, surrounded by her loving family, in Ann Arbor, Michigan on December 24, 2021 of heart failure. She was 93.
Boogie was born in Harlan County, Kentucky, the daughter of Everett and Nell Green and the sister of Eloise, Billy, Teddy, John, Joan, Elizabeth, and Margetta. She married Herbert on December 26, 1945 and moved to Detroit, Michigan in 1950. They raised their four daughters surrounded by loving neighbors in Inkster before settling in Dearborn. After raising her daughters, Boogie devoted many years of her life helping people with mental disabilities while working in a group home.

She will be sorely missed by each member of her family.
