Funeral services for Walterine Temple Wilson, age 95, will be held Saturday, May 25, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. at West Jackson Baptist Church, Jackson, TN. The service will be officiated by Dr. Jerry Tidwell, Rev. Lonnie Sanders and Rev. Ricky Clark with burial to follow at Highland Memorial Gardens. Mrs. Wilson died Wednesday, May 22, 2013 at Regency Retirement Village in Jackson, TN. She was born May 20, 1918 in Bailey, MS, the daughter of George Lavalle Temple and Ethel White Temple. Mrs. Wilson was a faithful member of West Jackson Baptist Church for over 70 years. She loved the children of West Jackson by serving for over 50 years in the Preschool Ministry as teacher, director and coordinator. She is survived by her husband of over 74 years, James C. “Pete” Wilson; two sons, Larry (Debbie) Wilson of Knoxville, TN; Dennis (Dianne) Wilson of Auburn, AL; one daughter, Ramona (Mark) Yates of Jackson, TN, and an “exchange student son”, Ole Briseid (Elisabeth) of Oslo, Norway who has maintained a special relationship with the family for over 50 years. She is survived by five grandchildren; Trent (Mallory) Wilson, Drew (Allison) Yates, Ben Wilson, Claire (Phillip) Mitchell and Sarah Wilson (fiance Austin Stephenson). She is also survived by 4 great-grandchildren; Miller Wilson, Tucker Wilson, Mallie Wilson and Sophie Yates. She was preceded in death by two sisters, Grace Temple Helms Pace and twin Imogene Temple Riley and three brothers, Glynn Temple, Dewayne Temple and George Temple. She is survived by one sister, Merle Temple Albritton and many nieces and nephews. She was much loved as a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Her family was blessed by her quiet inner strength, her ability to see the positive in all people and in all circumstances, as well as her kindness, compassion and generosity to all. Her loving marriage to Pete for over 74 years was an example and testimony of what a Christian marriage should be. The family is very grateful for her loving influence upon their lives. The family will receive friends Friday, May 24, 2013 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Arrington Funeral Home and before the memorial service Saturday at West Jackson Baptist Church, Jackson, TN.
