Wilton Fridge Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Griffin Funeral Home - West Monroe on Apr. 24, 2023.
Wilton "Bill" Fridge was born May 10, 1956 and passed away April 22, 2023 at the age of 66. Bill was special good, bad or ugly, a character to know. He was independent in nature and a hard worker. Bill's careers included a dairy man, a land agent for energy developers, and in his retirement years, a dog trainer for his beloved Labradors.
Bill had a deep love for his family, with their best interest at heart even if it wasn't. He had a dry sense of humor and a good laugh. And though he felt unworthy, Bill knew a sovereign God.
Bill was preceded in death by his mother, Jacqueline Ann Fridge.
Left to cherish his memories are his father, Wilton Oscar Fridge; daughter, Emily Pinkerton (Callen) and her mother, Cyndy Slaughter; siblings, Ellen Sanders (Larry) and Ann Meseke. Bill has 3 grandchildren, Callie Teel (Carson), Deidra Bagby (Colton), and Alec Dan Pinkerton; nephews, Shawn Hebert (Krystal), Kenneth Adams (Crystal), John Adams (Tara) and niece Jennifer Corbin. He is also survived by a host of other friends and family.
A Memorial Service for family and close friends will be held Saturday, April 29, 2023.
