It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Wanda Faye Watson.
Born on December 10, 1943, in Laurel County, Kentucky, Wanda departed this world on February 18, 2025. A lifelong resident of Corbin, Kentucky, Wanda was a cherished member of the Calvary Tabernacle Church, where her beautiful voice could often be heard singing praises.
A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Wanda is survived by her husband of over 59 years, Edward Watson. Their love story was a testament to commitment and partnership, the foundation upon which their family was built. Wanda was also a loving mother to her children, Edward Watson and Tammy (Michael) Disotell. She found immense joy in her grandchildren, Jessica (Jonathan) Couch, Amber (Joseph) Amburgey, and Kaitlin (Robbi) Nevins; and her great-grandchildren, Kerah, Isaac, Declan, John, Ian, Emma Kate, and Alizah. Wanda is also survived by her siblings, Nancy Sargent, Betty Favors, Norman (Tootsie) Storms, Kenneth (Sherry) Storms, Bobby Storms, Timmy (Wanda) Storms, and Tommy (Joyce) Storms.
She is preceded in death by her parents, James and Gracie Storms; her brothers, Vestle and Herman Storms; and her sisters, Ruby Hammons, Phyllis Smith; and daughter-in-law, Sandra Watson.
Wanda was a woman of many passions, which included sewing, cooking, planting flowers, and helping Edward on the farm. However, her greatest joy was undoubtedly her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who were the beneficiaries of her unconditional love and kindness.
