Patricia Walsh Wilson, 77, of Savannah, Ga, passed away peacefully on June 10, 2026.
Patty was born on March 6, 1949 in Savannah, to Raymond Charles Walsh and Ann
Ryan Walsh. She was preceded in death by both of her parents and her beloved
husband of 28 years, Gerald Wilson. Patty, or “Pat” as she was known at work, was an
Executive Assistant at Great Dane Trailers for more than 40 years. Outside of work,
she loved everything leading up to and including St. Patrick’s Day. She was a past
President of the Daughters of Ireland and worked on the St. Patrick’s Day Parade
Committee. She was active in the Gamma Alpha Sigma sorority and was a past
President of both the State Council and the local chapter. Through her participation in
this sorority, she was often involved in fundraising efforts to benefit St. Jude’s Children’s
Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House. Patty was an avid Georgia Tech football fan
and owned season tickets for more than 30 years. She traveled to almost all home
games and occasional away games. She was such a loyal Tech fan that she NEVER
wore red and black together and did not allow her daughter to apply to UGA when going
to college!
Patty is survived by her daughter, Sherri (Glen) Wiltshire, granddaughters Gabrielle
O’Toole and Lyndsi Wiltshire, a brother, Timothy (Libby) Walsh, niece Aubrey (Brent)
Robinson, nephew, Raymond (Kari) Walsh and great nephews Charlie and Davis
Robinson. Patty was beloved by all who knew her and she will be greatly missed.
