She was raised in Arizona, where she met and married Fred Robert Wilson in June of 1925. Together they raised four children before moving to Southern California in 1955.

Mable was an active learner, reading a wide variety of publications and engaging often in spirited and informed discussions of current events and just about anything you had on your mind. She had a strong testimony of the Savior as a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Mable was preceded in death by her husband, Fred Robert Wilson, her daughter, Billie Louise, and her son, Fred.
