Patricia (Trish) A. Wilson, 1945 – 2024

Trish Wilson, 78, died Saturday, January 6, of natural causes in her Front Royal, home. Trish was born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio, daughter of Angela and Wilbur O’Horo and a 1963 graduate from Cardinal Mooney High School. She was a trailblazer beginning her career as a receptionist at Xerox Corporation and rising to the ranks of a Regional VP.
