We treasure the memories of the young Earl Wilson and his young bride, Doris, my (Lillie) cousin. Over the years we rejoiced at a life well lived, evidenced by career, family and faith. Rest assured that this momentary sorrow will soon give way to memories sure to bring joy, laughter and smiles -- and few of sadness -- because he continues to live in those he loves.
Doris and other beloved family members, Earl's death opens the door to the joy and completeness of unending life in the presence of the One whose glorious message he embodied more fully than most of us, and whose divine gift of gospel proclamation has blessed and challenged so many of us. Â I loved working with him on the WNC Conference staff and sharing ministry with him across our years in the conference together. Â I respected the courage that enabled him to stand firm and tall on issues of grave importance. Â He worked faithfully to keep the main thing "the main thing." Â Although Pat and I now live in Gainesville, GA, we will always cherish the gift of our time together. Â Grace and peace.
To Doris and family, I am so sorry to learn of Earl's death. He was a true gentle man and a Man of God. As a District Administrative Assistant, I enjoyed working with him while he served on the Cabinet and as the pastor of Mount Tabor UMC. You and your family have my sincerest condolences.Â
The Berry O' Kelly high school class of 1965 wish to express sincere condolences, and our heart felt sympathies for the passing of our classmate, The reverend Dr. Earl Wilson Jr. He was our Sr. class president, and we respected and loved him dearly.  "It matters not how long you live , but how"
I am sending the family my sincerest condolences. It was an honor to know Earl and be a part of his healthcare. He was such a very nice man.Â
Doris, Our hearts and prayers are with you and your family. May God's comfort, peace and strength continue to sustain you.
I had the honor of working with Earl at Mt. Tabor UMC. He always had a smile on his face or a song in his heart that he would sometimes share out loud with our preschoolers.It was a blessing to know him.
Earl was a mentor and friend to me. I’m glad to have known him. So sorry for your loss, I look forward to seeing him in glory.
