Daniel "Danny" Wilson Obituary

Visit the Cremation Society of SC - Westville Funerals - Greenville website to view the full obituary.

Daniel G. Wilson, known affectionately as Danny by his loved ones, passed away on January 29, 2025 in his hometown of Greenville, SC, where he was also born on August 7, 1952. A man of profound thoughtfulness, selflessness, and generosity, Danny's legacy is one of unwavering kindness and quiet strength.

Danny's life was a testament to the love he had for his family. He is survived by his devoted wife, Barbara Wilson, with whom he shared a beautiful and enduring partnership. Together, they raised two wonderful children, Delana W. Adams (Keener) and Johnathan Daniel Wilson (Kelly), who brought immense joy and pride to his life. Danny's legacy continues through his cherished grandchildren, Zachary, Christian, Daniel, and Faith, who will carry forward his spirit of compassion and generosity.

He was a beloved brother to Donald Wilson (Anne) and Mike Wilson (June), and he held close the memories of his late brothers, Robert, David, and Kenneth Wilson. Danny was predeceased by his parents, Arthur N. Wilson and Vurna M. Wilson, whose values and love shaped the man he became.

Danny's life was marked by his innate ability to put others before himself. His actions spoke louder than words, and those who knew him were touched by his capacity to give without expecting anything in return. He was a pillar in his community, always ready to lend a hand or a listening ear to anyone in need.

As we bid farewell to Danny, we celebrate a life lived with purpose and grace. His presence was a gift to all who knew him, and his memory will be cherished in the hearts of his family and friends. Danny's influence will continue to be felt, and his example of kindness and selflessness will remain a guiding light for generations to come.

A funeral service will be held on Saturday, February 1, 2025 at 1 PM, with a visitation held one hour prior, at the Cremation Society of SC - Westville Funerals, 6010 White Horse Rd, Greenville, SC 29611.
