Tracy Revill
Wilson
Feb 16, 1937 — May 18, 2022
Tracy Revill Wilson, age 85, returned to his heavenly Home on May 18, 2022, in Provo, Utah. After an active and long life, a recent stroke limited his ability to talk and move, and he just wanted to "go home" and "be with her", meaning his beloved Glenna Deen Blau Wilson. Tracy was born in Inglewood, California on February 16, 1937 to Ethel Marie Revill and adopted by Carlyle George Wilson in 1945 and grew up in Union, Utah. Tracy served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Samoan Islands from 1957-60 and remained a true "tama Samoa", even an "inside-out coconut" until the end. He was an early member of the Utah Polynesian Choir.
In 1966 he met Glenna in Tooele and they were married that year in the Logan LDS temple. They had six children of their own and invited many Polynesian and native American children into their home. Tracy taught school and coached in Tooele, American Samoa, and Lehi for 31 years. He loved sports of all kinds and enjoyed spending time on the tennis court, baseball fields, and at swim practice and meets with his children. He enjoyed serving and helping others.
Tracy loved his Savior Jesus Christ. He exemplified charity, service, and an accepting and broad love. He had faith in the Atonement of Jesus Christ and its glorious power through the eternities. He loved to bear his testimony to all who would listen and tried to display his love for the Savior even though he struggled with weaknesses in this "telestial" existence.
There is comfort in knowing that his spirit is welcomed to a realm of healing and peace, where his dear wife, Glenna, can continue to be a powerful light and stabilizing force in his growth. He was preceded in death by Glenna, his parents, sister Mary, brother Byron, son-in-law Orbil Solorzano, granddaughter Raquel. He is survived by his children: Janet Rae (Bart) Erickson, Michael Lee (Jenni) Wilson, Eliesa Moana Solorzano, David Lawrence (Heather) Wilson, Marc Lynn (Shalynn), and Daniel Lyle (Emily) Wilson; 27 grandchildren and many friends. He is also survived by: two brothers Carl Benjamin (Bang-On) and John Melvin (Sharon), and a sister Ruth Hagen.
Viewing will be held at the Wing Mortuary, 118 East Main Lehi, Utah, June 5 from 6:00-8:00pm. There will be a graveside service on June 6 at 10:00am at Mountain View Memorial Estates, 3115 Bengal Blvd. Cottonwood Heights, Utah.
