Richard "Rick" Glenn Wilson, 80, sadly passed away at his home in Tyler, TX on August 2, 2025. Born December 1, 1944, in Pasagoula, MS to his father, Robert G Wilson and mother, Ruby D Wilson. He is survived by his grandson, Tristan A. Clemson of Azel, TX, his cousin Travis Wilson and wife Leah Wilson, and his friends that he considered family, Linda Wilson of Azel, TX and Alan Stone and Tiffani Stone of Tyler, TX. He was preceded in death by his mother, father, brothers Robert S Wilson, and Clint E Wilson, his beloved wife, Christine Wilson and his amazing daughter Christy Lyn Wilson.

Rick joined the Army early on and then hired on at Lockheed Martin where he also retired. Rick had a love for the outdoors and animals, his precious pups Rowdy and Trixie that also preceded him death. He had a true adventurous spirit that enjoyed traveling, camping, fishing, hunting, and his priceless visits from his grandson.

A graveside service will be held on Saturday, August 23, 2025, at 10 am at Acton Cemetery in Granbury, TX where he will be laid to rest with the love of his life Christine Wilson.
