Obituary
“I am at peace; my soul is at rest. There is no need for tears, for with your love, I was blessed for all my years.”
Tommy Edward Wilson was born on June 27, 1951, to the parents of George Edward (who proceeded him in death) and Mable LeEster Wilson. He was born in California and raised in Tulsa, OK.
He was a scholar student at Carver Middle School and a graduate of Booker T. Washington, both in Tulsa, OK.
Tom was introduced to the church at a very early age at Page Memorial Church of God in Christ, under the leadership of Elder J.L. Alderman. He later accepted Christ into his life at Pentecostal Temple Church of God in Christ, under the leadership of Elder Roy Davis.
His melodic voice was music to the ears! Indeed, he was a dynamic
spiritual singer and piano player. As a member of his church, he also
became the Assistant Director of Music. With such an inspirational
presence, he received several invitations to sing and play piano at many events and functions.
In 1970, Tommy joined Margaret Roberts in holy matrimony. From this union, 3 beautiful blessings were added to their family.
Tom was blessed with much wisdom and a humble heart. He was a
friendly soul, who would always take the time out to discuss the Bible and advised- “thus said the Lord”. His shoulders were strong and carried heavy loads. As a problem solver, he would try to direct you in the
right direction.
Today we celebrate the life of Tommy as he leaves to mourn: his mother; Mable Wilson, 4 children, his son; Tommy Lee Edward Wilson, his daughters; Yolanda Coi Wilson-Cooks, Najia Daye Wilson and Diamond Shontell Wilson, 7 grandchildren, all of Tulsa, OK, 4 brothers; Baron L.
