Twila V. White, our beloved wife, mother, grandmother and friend walked into the loving arms of her Savior, Jesus Christ May 9, 2008. Twila, age 74 was peacefully within the heart of her home as her faithful husband, family and friends sat at her side. She was born January 18, 1934 in Robertsville, OH to the late Dillon and Ethel (Berry) Stump. She graduated from Louisville High School, and was captain of the girl's basketball team.

Together she and her husband owned and operated Whitey's Sunoco Station on the corner of Traphagen & Wales Rd for 30 years. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by two brothers; Clarence and Leonard Stump. Twila was best known for her gift of love. She was one of those special people who knew how to follow Christ's commandment, Love one another. Her love, laughter and smile will fill our hearts and lives forever. We stand changed because of her presence in our lives. Twila will be forever missed by her husband; Joseph E. 'Whitey' White with whom she would have shared 53 years of marriage on June 5th.
