To know Charles was to love him. His warm sense of humor and contagious laughter brightened the lives of everyone around him. With a heart of gold, he held a profound love for his family and a desire to help others. He was the kind of man who would willingly give you the shirt off his back, always putting others before himself.
Mr. Wilson departed this life on March 12, 2025 in Bethel Springs, Tennessee at the age of 88 Years, 10 Months, 6 Days.
He is survived by a son, Earnest Wilson and wife Tammy; three grandchildren: Cory Wilson, Brittany Marshall and husband RJ, and Bryson Marshall; and his nieces and nephews, including Debbie Howell and husband Walter.
