Mrs. Wilson was retired from Commercial Bank with over 30 years. She also taught school for a couple of years at Prince Chapel in the Coy community. She attended Pharmacy school at The University of Mississippi but quit when her husband asked her to marry him. She loved her vegetable garden and worked that garden into her 80’s until her health just wouldn’t let her do it anymore. She had a very strong relationship with God and was a member of Spring Hill United Methodist Church.
