Ricky Lee Wilson, 60, of Ringgold, VA passed away at Novant Health Forsyth Center in Winston Salem on Saturday, January 20, 2024. Ricky was born on August 31, 1963, in Danville, VA. He was the son of the late Sadie Louise Maxey Lewis and the late Harry Wayne Wilson.

Ricky was a hard working, honest, consistent man that spent more than 40 years working under many hats for well known Philip Daly, the founder of Daly Seven, Innkeeper Hotels, D & K Construction, and Danville Memorial Gardens.
In the last several years, Ricky thoroughly enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren while having the opportunity to live out his extended work vacation on Bald Head Island, NC and the surrounding beaches. Ricky also made way to live out the dream of riding motorcycles that he spent most of his life not knowing he loved.
