Pastor Nancy Wilson was the most beautiful woman of god. Her smile radiated the spirit of God and she smiled every time I saw and talked to her. She is now singing in the heavenly choir! Prayer and heartfelt sympathy to Pastor Wilson and her son and family.

Praying Jesus will heal the family hurts

Growing up in the rural parts of Montgomery County, as a young boy who had the hands of God on his life I so looked forward every Sunday morning to watching Nancy Wilson on gospel expo. What wonderful memories and inspiration this brings to my life today. The only word that I can think of that would express who this woman of God was. That is ICONIC!!! To her children....what a legacy you been afforded.

M Todd Lewis

My condolences and prayers. May God give you peace.

My condolences and prayers. May God strengthen you.

May God strengthen you during this time. My condolences and prayers for the family.

So sorry for your loss! Prayers! Sara Ferguson & Joyce Ferguson

My deepest sympathies on the passing of our beloved Pastor Nancy Wilson. My fondest memory was being on gospel expo twice. Once with SWD Choir of the United Holy Church of America and with NC A&T State University Gospel Choir. I would watch "Gospel Expo" often. May the God of grace give you strength.

My prayers for God's comfort and peace are with you, Elder Teddy, Kim, Angie, Isaac, and the rest of the family. Your mother was very instrumental in developing my life of intercession and faith. Pastor Nancy pushed me into praying on purpose and to pressing into the kind of relentless faith to believe that I can have what God says is mine. I will forever love and value Pastor Nancy for her love for Christ, prayer, amd worship! What a mighty gift to the Kingdom will she forever be! I am very grateful that she allowed me to serve her by preparing Sunday dinners! Pastor loved my roasted turkey, greens, and iced tea. From now on, I will think of Pastor Nancy whenever I make and serve them! Stay strong and hold your head up as your loved one would prefer that you only praise, pray, and most of all worship!

May God give you all strength and comfort Pastor Nancy was an amazing and awesome Woman of God she could sing and you thought you was in heaven I use to watched her show every Sunday morning she was annointed Woman one day we will see her again if we continue to hold on to God unchanging hand. Much love

Pastor Wilson was a beloved and encouraging sister in Christ as well as a daughter in Zion. She so sowed into others--in fact into multitudes, often without due recognition. She was truly a gift to Christ's body. Her legacy is fixed and her influence will be enduring. As with Abel, though she is departed, she yet speaketh. We look forward to reuniting with her at the King's great coronation.

Sis Angie, I was sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. I pray God gives you comfort and peace during this time and always. May the memories of your mother be forever in your heart. Love you much, Deborah, DeboRon, and Mckinley

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful woman of God. I love to hear her own gospel expo she was a beautiful woman inside and outside. Anytime she would sing it will make me feel better and know that God is there. Thank you for this lovely woman that had a heart for the people. Love, Pastor Jannie Wesley and family

You are in my thoughts and prayers. May you always be comforted by the love and fond memories of your mother to help you to get through the days ahead. When one has fought a good fight and the battle is done, they are victorious in Jesus. God is your refuge and your strength. Find the comfort that you need in His loving arms. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted...Matthew 5:4

Our deepest condolences to the entire family. I grew up watching her on Gospel Expo and then continued to follow her ministry. Pastor Wilson has left a beautiful legacy and I thank you. We will keep you lifted in prayer. Ms Dilane Pinnix and family Reidsville, NC

Pastor Nancy Wilson was anointed and appointed. My friends were members, invited me to New Beginnings Church. I came back numerous times without them and gave my life to christ. She met her people where they were. She didn't like a bunch of mess. She didn't have certain picks of members. She loved everyone. As I witness she was the same in person as she was on TV. Heaven gained a Angel. Rest In Heaven! Pastor Nancy Wilson!!! THE GOOLSBY FAMILY

Pastor Wilson was an extraordinary inspiration to me for many years singing on the North Carolina Jurisdiction State Choir. She made singing for the Lord easy because she carried such an sweet spirit ministering and directing. She will definitely be missed on this side. Rest in peace my sister.

Pastor Nancy was a huge influence in my life and enhanced my love for choir music. I remember when Gospel Expo started on WPHY channels High Point, I was glued to the TV from beginning to end. I will always cherish the opportunity of singing in the show with Jimmie Thomas and Triad Mads Choir. It was an awesome experience. I learned so much from her workshops, and her teaching and directing style. She was a phenomenal Woman, Singer, Pastor etc. My prayers to You all, Pastor Teddy, Angela, Kim and Isaac. Her legacy lives on through You! Cathy Carter

Pastor Wilson welcomed us into the New Beginnings Church when we visited the Pressleys and Shepard families. I have an autistic grandson and the churches is Maryland were ask we take him to an over-crowded quiet room or leave service. Pastor Nancy Wilson understood and she said do not quiet him, he is singing to God in his own way. We could not have thanked her enough. Rest in Heaven Pastor Wilson. Your legacy and your songs will last forever in our hearts - Kimberly, Taylor, MJ from Waldorf, MD

Pastor was such a down to earth, fun loving person. She was so full of life. She will be missed. Rest in peace Pastor Nancy.
