Wilson Walker

Wilson Wesley Walker, age 85, passed from this life on November 11, 2022.

He was born at home in Davie County to Simmon Phillip Walker and Bertha Josephene Nezat Walker. He was the youngest of ten children. Wilson was an active member of Pinedale Christian Church for many years and felt privileged by God’s mercy and grace to serve there. He loved talking about his Lord and Saviour and was deeply grieved for those who did not know Jesus. He had a heart for the elderly and enjoyed visiting them, especially when they could no longer get out due to aging. Serving communion on Sundays to those who were homebound brought Wilson heartfelt joy as it did for those he was serving.

Wilson’s employment included over two decades with the Winston-Salem Police Department, from which he retired, and a family business of wood floor finishing which he began learning at the age of twelve. He was preceded in death by his sisters, Ethel, Dorothy (Dot), Elsie, Margie, Agnes, Helen, Evelyn and Norma Lee; brother, Melvin; and several fine brothers-in-law and one fine sister-in-law.

Wilson is survived by his devoted wife, Virginia, of 27 years. He is also survived by his daughter, Connie Walker; two sons, Wesley Walker (Susan) and Keith Walker; four grandchildren, Austin Walker (Jessica), Ashley Nease (Chris), Travis Walker (Fernanda), and Hailey Fulk (Jordan Foucheu); three great-

granddaughters, Morgan and Karmen Burgess-Walker, and Emelia Nease; and one great grandson, Carson Foucheu.

A service will be held at 2:00 PM on Tuesday, November 15, 2022 at Pinedale Christian Church with Bill McKenzie and Danny Spainhour officiating. Burial will be on Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. at Oaklawn Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Pinedale Christian Church Missions or Medi Home Health and Hospice.
