Justin Wilson Obituary
Born: June 24, 1980 | Died: January 15, 2025
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Justin Earl Wilson, on January 15, 2025 in Elizabeth City, NC. Born on June 24th, 1980, in Columbus, Ohio, Justin was 44 years old when he died. Justin is survived by his mother, Judy Michael, his stepfather W. Dean Michael, his adopted son Dakota, his step-daughter Venus, his sisters Kristie and Heather, his brother-in-law Scott, his nephews Aksel, Elias, and Thaddeus, and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was preceded in death by his father, I. Earl Wilson.
Justin was a black belt in Shaolin Kempo Karate, an excellent cook, a lover of Star Wars as well as professional wrestling, a fan of hip-hop culture, and loved professional and college football, especially the Ohio State Buckeyes. He held the position of Chef de Tournant at Hound Ears Country Club and was admired by staff and members alike for his work ethic, humor, and lively personality. He loved animals, especially dogs, his family, the church, music, and a good party.
We will remember him for his kindness, generosity, and sweet smile. He will always live in our hearts and will be immensely missed.
Justin passed from liver and kidney failure brought on by his long struggle with alcohol use disorder as well as a genetic liver disease. Although he tried several times to maintain sobriety, he was regrettably unable to do so.
A memorial service will be held at Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church on Saturday, February 8th, 2025, at 2PM.
