UNION, WV --- Charles Steven Wilson, age 69, went to be with the Lord on Friday, January 19, 2024, at his home in Union, WV, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Born October 13, 1954, in Union, WV, he was the son of the late Charles Edward "Pete" Wilson and Judith Jackson Wilson.

Steve was a retired bridge and materials inspector for the West Virginia Department of Highways. He also was an EVOC Driver for Union Rescue Squad and White Sulphur Springs Rescue Squad. He was a Christian and a member of Calvary Baptist Church, Red Sulphur Springs, WV. Steve truly enjoyed farming and gardening, from sheep and horses to cattle, hay production and finally his prized flower beds. His green thumb was only surpassed by his humility, kindness, and willingness to help others. Never knowing a stranger, Steve was one who would quite literally give anything he had to help someone in need. He truly enjoyed nothing more than to spoil his three grandchildren and all of his "adopted" children and grandchildren.

In addition to his father Pete, he was preceded in death by one brother, David Cary Wilson.

Those left to cherish his memory include his wife of 44 years Pamela Michelle Wilson; a son Paul Wilson and wife Crystal of Greenville WV.

Additionally the family would like to extend their gratitude to the Blue Ridge Cancer Center and staff Low Moor VA, Kathy Atkins RN, Kelly, Cheryl, Marcy, Elizabeth Hall PA, Dr. Matthew Skelton, and Dr. Ladier Canterbury.
