In 2004, he moved to Aliceville where he spent all of his childhood. He was a member of Aliceville First Baptist Church and involved in all the children and youth activities. He loved the Lord, his family, his friends, and Alabama basketball; most of the time he got that in the right order. He was a member of the Pickens Academy Pirate Basketball Team, Golf Team, and a member of the Teacher Cadet Program at the Pickens County College and Career Center. He was chosen to represent Pickens Academy at Alabama Boy’s State in the Summer of 2019.

Charlie and Jill Kizziah Wilson of Aliceville; his sister, Allie Belle Wilson of Aliceville; his maternal grandfather, John William Kizziah of Pensacola, FL; his paternal grandparents, Dr. Robert Kemp (Jr.) and Charlie Faye Wilson of Pensacola, FL; 9 aunts and uncles, Robert Kemp Wilson III (Janet) of Tuscaloosa, Jan Kizziah Thompson of Pensacola, FL, John Michael Kizziah (Lori) of Pensacola, FL, Denny McMillan Wilson (Gena) of Pensacola, FL, and Judd Conlee Wilson (Martha Ann) of Tupelo, MS; 11 cousins, Addison Thompson Rentschler (John) of Birmingham, Robert Kemp “Kemper” Wilson IV (Tate) of Pensacola, FL, Rebecca Lynn Hyde of Birmingham, Christina Hyde Poole (Houston) of Gordo, Catharine Faye Wilson of Pensacola, FL, Kathryn Madison Kizziah (fiancé, Sam Carpenter) of Pensacola, FL, Cole McDaniel Wilson of Tupelo, MS, Denny “Mac” McMillan Wilson Jr. of Pensacola, FL, John Taylor Kizziah of Pensacola, FL, Mary Conlee Wilson of Tupelo, MS, and Abigail Seaton Thompson of Pensacola, FL; and 3 new, precious second cousin additions, Zettie Jo Poole, Lucy James Wilson, and Ada Lee Rentschler.
CP was proud to be a manager for the Alabama Men’s Basketball program, which fulfilled a lifelong dream since attending his first basketball camp in the third grade. He brought energy, laughter, and passion to every relationship he had. To know CP, is to love him and also argue with him.

Honorary Pallbearers will be his Pickens Academy Basketball and Golf teammates; the Alabama Men’s Basketball managers, players, coaches, and staff; and “The Best of PA” (Pickens Academy Class of 2020).
