MOSES GERALD WILBURN
A funeral for Moses Gerald Wilburn of Novato, a resident of Marin for 24 years, will be held Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. at Redwood Chapel mortuary in Novato.
Wilburn died Sunday at a local hospital after a brief illness. He was 56.
Wilburn was a native of Ohio and came to the Bay Area in the early 1940s when he was in the Navy. He was stationed at Treasure Island during World War II.
He worked for about 20 years at the Presidio in San Francisco on electronics for missile systems. He went to work about four years ago at the Mare Island Naval Shipyard as an equipment specialist. He shipped electronic replacement parts for naval vessels all over the world.
He and his wife, Biddie, moved to Marin in 1955 from Colma.
Besides his wife, he is survived by a daughter, Lisa M. Wilburn of Novato; a brother, Charles W. Wilburn of Ohio; and six sisters, Ilo Brooks of Florida, and Lucille Walls, Evelyn Albertson, Wilma Jean Claytor, Garnet Keiser and Glenda Bish, all of Ohio.
Burial will be in Chillicothe, Ohio. The family prefers memorial contributions to the Marin County Heart Association.
