“Mildred” Jeraldine Perry Wilson

The family of “Mildred” Jeraldine Perry Wilson announces her move from this earthly life to eternal life with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. After an extended battle with dementia, she is finally whole again. She passed away peacefully on January 19, 2023.

She is lovingly remembered by her son; Ronald Wilson, and his wife Marlene; Grandson, Israel Wilson, and his wife, Lisa; Grandson, Larry Venable; and Grandson Joshua Wehunt. Mildred is also survived by her great-granddaughter, Harley Wilson Roberts; five great-great-grandchildren, LenaKae and Melanie Kesler, Rosalee Hamilton, Logan, and Mera Roberts; and several nephews and nieces.

Mildred’s accomplishments are many, but she would tell you her family and her personal relationship with Jesus Christ are the most important accomplishments of her life. She served faithfully as a Pastor’s wife along with numerous other ministerial offices of her beloved husband during their sixty-nine years of marriage. Mildred was a faithful member of the River of Life Congregational Holiness Church of Nicholson, Georgia for forty-seven years. Whatever her hands found to do, she did with joy.
