Zachary Wilson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 19, 2025.
Zachary Warren Wilson of Virginia Beach, Virginia, passed away unexpectedly on September 10, 2025 in Ponce de Leon, Florida leaving family and friends devastated.

Zach was born on September 11, 1995 in Pensacola, Florida. At the age of 1, the family moved to Virginia where he spent the majority of his life. Zach's life was marked by his adventurous spirit, warm heart, and unique sense of style.

Zach spent most summers with his grandparents in Florida where he enjoyed spending time on Compass Lake and fishing/diving in the Gulf with his grandfather "Pops" and uncle Randy. Zach found peace in the water and had hopes of becoming a charter captain.

Zach got SCUBA certified at the age of 14 with his step-dad Jonah and would go diving as often as he could. He turned his passion for diving into a career as a commercial diver at the age of 18. A skilled professional, he dedicated his work to conducting bridge inspections, servicing ships and oil rigs, and performing underwater welding.

Even though it went against everything his parents taught him, Zach loved the Florida Gators - ROLL TIDE!

Zach is survived by his parents Brenda (Jonah) Dickey, David Wilson (Brandi Hope); his brother, Ryan Wilson and sister, Jordan (PJ) Harn; his niece Lillian Harn (expected 11-2025); grandparents, Ronnie and Hazel Glaze, Don and Cindy Dickey; great grandmother, Neta Owens; along with numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who will all miss him dearly.

Zach was predeceased by his paternal grandparents Bert and Delores Wilson and aunt Sharon Wilson.

A Memorial Service will be held at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, September 26, 2025 at Bridge Church located at 3168 Indian River Road, Virginia Beach, VA. 23456.
