A Korean War veteran, Mr. Wilson served honorably in the United States Army. He proudly wore his Korean Veteran hat, putting all his other hats aside. Mr. Wilson, "Pop" to everyone but his wife, Marilyn, was loved by all who met him. His smiling blue eyes revealed his inner happiness. Mr. Wilson was a humorous man who loved to tell stories. When speaking of him, people would say "What a guy!". He was so personable, Mr. Wilson never forgot a name, recalling both first and last names of people he encountered over the years. He was a Christian man of Baptist faith who would so diligently study his Bible, he would have to replace a worn-out copy with a new. Mr. Wilson enjoyed watching Shepherd's Chapel on television for many years. He was a hard-working, humble man. Mr. Wilson enjoyed gardening and canning the rewards; he liked working on his tractors and going fishing. He loved to travel; especially to many of the National Parks. "Pop" sure loved his grandchildren and was so proud of them.
