Boston Dean Wilson went to be with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Saturday night at the young age of only 16 years old. He and one of his friends passed away after a terrible car wreck on the way back from Houston after touring Universal Technical Institute where he was planning to study to become a diesel mechanic.

Boston touched many lives in his short time here on Earth. He was a very gentle loving soul with a huge heart, whitty personality, and a smile you can never forget. He was a loving Son, Brother, Uncle, Nephew, Grandson and Friend. Everyone who knew him loved him. Boston played many sports but excelled in basketball. He was an exceptional player for both Hawkins and Big Sandy Schools. He absolutely loved it! Our hearts are broken but we know he is in Heaven with Jesus, probably playing basketball right now. We know by God's promise that we will see each other again one day. 

He is survived by his heartbroken family including his mother, Amanda Prestridge; Stepdad, Josh Prestridge; Brothers, Jordyn and Maddox; Sister, Khloe; grandmother, Debbie Wilson; grandfather, Tony Bersano; great grandmother, Shirley Bersano, along with nieces, nephews, and many many friends. Rest in Peace Grandson, until we meet again.

Boston is preceded in death by his dad, Brandon Wilson; grandfather, Rick Wilson and grandmother, Scheryl Bersano.

Pallbearers are Eli Brown, Jarrett Crowley, Carter Bersano, Landen Hartman, Jordyn Williams, Tony Bersano, Tyler Vinson and Gavin Lara.

Services will be held at Summit Heights Fellowship in Hawkins on Sunday, November 24, 2024 at 1:00PM. Interment to follow at Cathedral In The Pines Cemetery in Tyler, Texas.
