Irene Wilburn

Irene V. Wilburn (nee Vidischak) of Devon, previously of Annadale, VA, passed away peacefully on January 15 surrounded by her family. She was pre-deceased by her parents John and Anna (nee Skurla) Vidischak.

Irene worked with the government in Washington DC for over fifty years for various departments including The Department of the Navy, Department of Defense, Defense Mapping Agency as well as National Imagery and Mapping Agency.

She was the loving wife of the late Thomas V. Wilburn Jr. and devoted mother of Thomas V. III (Dodie), John D., and Lynne Whitaker (Thomas). She was pre-deceased by her 10 siblings: John Jr, Michael, George, Anna Jock, Margaret Starinsky, Pauline Palesky, Teresa Barge, Dorothea Meyers, Helen Gifford and Betty. An avid reader, Irene loved spending time with her six grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, contributions in her memory to Wounded Warrior Project would be appreciated.
