Wilson (Katie) of Union, KY; five grandchildren: Alex Cima (fiancé Ashley Brown), Harper Handy, Raleigh Handy, Theo D. Wilson, and Malcom J. Wilson; great granddaughter, Aspen R. Cima; twin brother, Raymond Wilson (Shirley); sister, Jean Hollins; and two sisters-in-law: Rita Disney (Wess) and Cheryl Fletcher (J.R.);  He is also survived by several nieces, nephews, other relatives and numerous friends.  He was greatly loved and will be sorely missed.
