Family and friends gathered recently to celebrate Justeen Wilson’s 85th birthday.

Among those in attendance was Whitley County Judge-Executive Pat White Jr., who presented Wilson with a proclamation proclaiming Feb. 24, 2024 as Justeen Wilson Day throughout Whitley County, Kentucky.

Justeen and her late husband, Bob, were owners and operators of the very popular Justeen’s Restaurant from 1976 to 1995.

For the past several years Justeen has been a very valued member and officer of the Whitley County Historical and Genealogical Society where you can find her most Wednesdays and Saturdays helping to preserve and research Whitley County’s history.
