Ciella Elizabeth Wilson, age 90, of Lula, entered heaven Monday, November 27, 2023, at the Northeast Georgia Medical Center, Gainesville.
Ciella was born in Dahlonega to the late Author Joseph & Lula Mae Grizzle Lee. She was a very dedicated member of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church in Lula, where she was very active in WMU, the church choir, and many more areas of the church. In her spare time, she enjoyed needlepoint, reading, doing word searches, and cooking, but she really enjoyed keeping up with her church family. Ciella had a lot of wisdom, and her memory was excellent, recalling past events as though they had just happened. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
She was preceded in death by her husband, William Wilson & her son, the Rev. Shane Wilson; daughter, Vickie Lynn Wilson; sister, Bonnelle Stephens; brothers, Jewell Lee & Glenson Lee.
Left to cherish sweet memories, son, Mark Wilson; sister, Louvanna Grizzle; brother, Richard Lee; a number of nieces, nephews, relatives & friends.
