Wilson, “Pype” as he was called by his grandchildren; “Dad” by his children, “Mac” or “Billy” as he was affectionately known by those who loved him, was a loving family man. He tried to attend every sports game or event that his grandchildren participated in. Just like the post man, he wanted to be there rain, sleet or snow. Mac coached football, track, and adult softball. He was an avid sports fan in which he took great pride in and didn’t mind getting thrown out of the games.

Wilson confessed his faith and was baptized at New Lincoln Baptist Church. He moved his membership to St. Peters United Methodist Church.
