Anthony Patrick Wilson

In loving memory, we honor the life of Anthony Patrick Wilson, a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend, who passed away peacefully on June 3, 2026, after a courageous battle with cancer. Born on November 7, 1961, in Kansas City, Missouri, Anthony, fondly known as "Pat," lived a life rich with love, adventure, and dedication. Pat was the beloved son of the late Bonnie Riddle and Penton Jean Wilson, and cherished brother to the late Robert Wilson. He is survived by his loving wife, Judy Kay Wilson, with whom he shared a beautiful journey since their marriage on January 18, 2000. Together, they raised a family, filled their home with laughter, love, and the roar of motorcycles, and cultivated a life marked by mutual respect and unwavering support. A proud veteran, Pat served his country with honor in the United States Army from 1977 to 1981 as a Staff Sergeant, including service in Vietnam. His military service was a testament to his resilience and commitment, traits that he carried into every aspect of his life. Pat's educational path led him from Liberty High to earning his GED from a military school in Mexico, Missouri—a journey that exemplified his determination and perseverance. His career as a Wholesale Car Buyer at Silver Eagle Auto Mall defined his professional life, where he was respected for his integrity and work ethic. Beyond his professional achievements, Pat was a man of many passions. He found joy in the open road as a motorcycle enthusiast, was an avid sport fisherman, and found peace in the great outdoors while camping and hunting. As a member of the Missouri Trap Shooters Association and a former member of the Harley Owners Group, Pat's life was enriched by his hobbies and the friendships they fostered. Pat was a man of honesty, stability, and dependability. He had a unique perspective and a distinctive way of doing things, always driven by the best interests of those he loved. His legacy is carried forward by his children, Corey Harrison and his wife Talia, and Haley Harrison and her husband TJ Sams. He was a proud grandfather to eight grandchildren: Tylon Allen, Corbin Wolfe, Jasper Harrison, Jocelyn Harrison, Kaydence Harrison, Owen Harrison, Skylar Sams, and Harper Sams, each of whom brought immense joy to his life. He is also survived by his two sisters, Sharon Stucker, Elizabeth Meier, as well as several nieces and nephews, and many dear friends across the country. Pat's life was a tapestry of deep connections, laughter, and shared experiences. A private funeral ceremony will be held to honor Pat's life, with a celebration of life to be scheduled at a later date, allowing family and friends to gather and celebrate the remarkable man he was. In this time of remembrance, we reflect on Pat's life and the indelible mark he left on the hearts of those who knew him. His spirit, his laughter, and his love will forever echo in the lives of those he touched. Rest in peace, dear Pat. You will be missed but never forgotten.
