June Carol Wilder

June Carol Wilder entered into the presence of her Lord on October 14, 2023 in Knoxville, Tennessee. June was born in Hickory, North Carolina in 1939, her proud parents saw her crowned as the May Day Queen in 1949. In 1968 June married Robert E. Wilder and moved to Montgomery Alabama, where she lived until 2019. June moved to Knoxville in 2019 to be near her loving family. She was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Wilder, parents Clifton and Jane Gray Bolick, and her brother and sister-in-law Tommy Bolick and Lynda Bolick of Montgomery.

June was a dedicated member of Frazer Church, spending many Sundays as a greeter for worship services. Her faith in her Lord was steadfast and pure. June proudly served as a Montgomery Realtor for over 30 years. Her favorite pastimes were spending time with family, especially at her late brother’s lake house, enjoying God’s creations by birdwatching, caring for her outdoor plants, and reading Scripture.

Glamorous and ebullient, June loved people and was well known for her smile and sparkling presence that radiated joy wherever she went. She deeply loved her family and was always the life of the party. She was called ‘Kee’ by her loving grandchildren and great-grandchildren. June leaves this world with the love of her family, son Brett and DeeDee Wilder of Knoxville, TN; son Robert Wilder of Charlotte, NC; grandchildren Gray, Brett, William, Owen, Griffin, and Colin; and great-grandchildren Trace, Kaden, Cecilia, Emery, Baker, Jackson, and Lennon.
