Wendy Lea Hamlin

Wendy Lea Hamlin, 69, of Clarksburg, passed away on Tuesday, May 19, 2026 at her home surrounded by her family.  She was born on July 1, 1956 in Clarksburg, a daughter of the late George Junior Skinner and Wilma Jean Weekley Skinner.

She is survived by her husband of 46 years, Wayne Hamlin, whom she married on June 22, 1979.

She is also survived by daughter, Natasha Elmond and husband Nathan of Brownton, WV and step daughter, April Dawn Epperly and husband Chris of Charleston; grandchildren, Isabella Bellocchio, Ben Epperly, Olivia Epperly, Roslyn Elmond and Sariyah Elmond; two brothers, Randy Skinner and wife Brenda and Terry Skinner and wife Diane.

In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by her infant daughter, Heather Dawn Anderson.

Wendy was a proud graduate of Liberty High School, Class of 1974. She worked for a short time at Anchor Hocking, where fate led her to meet the love of her life, Wayne, beginning a lifelong journey together filled with love and devotion.

Wendy found joy in life’s simple pleasures. She loved traveling, especially going to the beach and to the mountains, tending to her flower gardens, and spending time in the kitchen preparing meals and desserts for the people she cared about most. Christmas was an especially cherished time for her, made even more meaningful because her daughter Natasha’s birthday fell on Christmas Day. Her home was always filled with warmth, love, and the sweet aroma of homemade treats and goodies she lovingly prepared for neighbors and friends. She found her greatest joy in giving to others, making everyone around her feel special, welcomed, and deeply cared for.

Above all, Wendy will be remembered for the love and strength she shared so freely with those around her. She was caring, strong-willed, amazing, loving, and endlessly supportive, a woman whose warmth, kindness, and generous heart left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know her. Her love for family and friends, along with the countless memories she created, will be treasured forever.

Family and friends will be received at Davis Funeral Home, 124 Olen Thomas Drive, Route 98, Clarksburg, on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, from 3-7p.m.  Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, May 27, 2026 at 11:00 AM with Pastor Chris Scott presiding.
