Thomas "Tom" Wilson passed away peacefully on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, surrounded by his family.
Tom was known for his integrity, strong work ethic, and genuine ability to connect with others. A Georgia Tech graduate and lifelong Yellow Jackets fan, he built a successful career in commercial real estate, working with Ariens Company, King Industrial Realty, and Wilson Hutchison Realty. He was widely respected for his honesty, relationships, and commitment to doing business the right way.
A man of deep and steady faith, Tom began each day in reflection and carried those values into every aspect of his life.
He was a devoted husband to Martha for 52 years, a loving father to Cindy, Robert, and Susan, and a proud grandfather and great-grandfather. He especially cherished the opportunity to work alongside his grandson, Brayden, this past summer, passing on his passion for the business.
He is survived by his wife, children, daughter-in-law Michelle, grandchildren Charner, Joey, and Brayden, great-grandchildren Hailee and Piper, and many extended family members and friends.
A celebration of life will be held on April 26, 2026, at 3:00pm at the Atlanta Athletic Club. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation or CURE Childhood Cancer.
