Family visitation will be from 10 a.m. to noon Thursday, Dec. 26, at Robert Massie Funeral Home with graveside service following at 2 p.m. in Lawnhaven Memorial Gardens with Charles Smith officiating.

He was the fifth of six children born to Dempsey J. and Sarah "Sally" Alice Kinsey McBride.
He loved animals, especially horses. He spent most of his life riding and training roping and barrel horses. Wilson joined the Rodeo Cowboy Association in 1951, in Killeen, Texas. He competed in the calf roping event in rodeos across Texas and throughout the United States for many years. He was inducted into the Texas Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame in Belton, Texas, in 2007. He retired from the maintenance department at Angelo State University in 1983.
He had made his home at Rio Concho Manor since 1988, where he made many friends and was affectionately known as "Cowboy". Wilson became a Christian when he was baptized, along with his second grandson, Keith, on October 1977, at Chadbourne North Church of Christ and was a member there until he began attending church services at the Manor in 2004.
Wilson was preceded in death by his parents; four brothers, J.D., Raby, Bailey and Gerald McBride; and one sister, Pauline Potter. He was much loved by his family and will be greatly missed. Survivors are daughter and son-in-law Alva Jean and Bobby Meek of San Angelo; three grandchildren, Kevin Meek of Bronte, Keith and wife Tiffany Meek and Vanessa and husband Gus Constancio of San Angelo; six great-grandchildren, Kollin Meek, Chelsea and husband Cody Brosh, Landon Meek, Kyra Constancio, Trey Constancio and Lane Constancio; Billie McBride, the mother of his daughter; and many nieces and nephews.

In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made to Odyssey Hospice; Meals For The Elderly; or a charity of your choice .
