She is survived by six children, Mark Wymer of Big Run, Beverly Burkett and William Copeland of Philadelphia, Michael Wymer and wife Lisa of Punxsutawney, James Wymer of Mechanicsburg, Jerry “JJ” Wymer and wife Kathy of Punxsutawney, and Lois Kerr and husband Jeremy of Rossiter; eleven grandchildren, Sonya Beatty and husband John, Willow Burkett, Amanda Overly and husband A.J., Hannah Duda and husband George, Brock, Zack, Kyrsten, Devyn, Kaleb, Kyle Wymer and Peyton Kerr; four great grandchildren, Scarlett Wymer, Ivy and Fiona Overly and Talia Duda.
