Wiley was such a good man, father, minister, and friend. I believe he never knew a stranger, was always ready with a smile, hand shake, and gentle joke. I will cherish the memories of the few times we got to play music together.

What a wonderful kind man. Heaven needed a new preacher! I will remember the stories he would weave; never quite sure if they were legit and always told with that glint in his eyes. I will miss you Wiley. Am sure there are lots of people in heaven whom you’ve touched that will be glad to see you. Our prayers for peace go out to the family. With love.

Our hearts are saddened by the passing of one of our former pastors, Wiley Wallace.
Wiley was such a great man of God. He was very special to our family.
When my Mama, Nora Williamson, was very sick and before she passed away, she called out Wiley’s name, she wanted to see him and Carole bought him! I have that special photo of that moment.
Prayers and much Love to Carole and MarkðŸ™ðŸ™

We were blessed to know Wiley and Carol. Wiley was a fine southern gentleman in the best sense of that phrase. We will especially miss his sense of humor, his musical ability, and his welcoming friendliness, not to mention his strong, abiding faith in the Lord and in his fellow human beings. In the words of my late father, he was a "gentleman and a scholar", and there aren't many like that left. Carol...our prayers go out to you and we are thinking of you.

On bealf of the sailors and wives of the USS OAK HILL LSD 7, we are so sad to hear of Wiley's passing. He was a shining light at our military reunions.

Carole and Family, We are sorry to hear of Wiley's passing. While living in Kenbridge my parents, as well as us 11 children, really enjoyed having Wiley and Will over for dinner and afterwards, playing music and singing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. We will have a great family reunion in Heaven one day. With love and prayers, Gracie Spivey La Place and Millie Spivey Rogers.

So sorry to learn about Wiley, Carole. Dean enjoyed the time spent with him in their later years and talked fondly about Wiley and his brother during their time aboard ship. May God bless you.

Uncle Wiley always had a welcoming smile, those beautiful Wallace eyes that matched those of my mother Nancy and a kind and witty personality. One of my best childhood memories is when he helped with my 5th birthday party at Grandma Sue’s house and took us all for rides in his restored Model T. He was a great musical talent and will be missed by all those whose lives he touched.

Harold and were so blessed to have him marry us at Newville Baptist Church Waverly, VA on July 28, 1968. We were lucky enough to see him again at a few bluegrass events over the years. We will join him in heaven one day. May God give you comfort.

So very sorry for your loss. Our hearts are saddened. Wiley was a fun-loving character and his humor was very enjoyable. Wiley and Carole were one of our closest couples who joined us at the USS Oak Hill reunions. We will miss him dearly. Our prayers and thoughts are with you, Carole, and your family. RIP Sailor!!

I met Wiley when I was 10 years old, 65 years ago. A finer man I've never known. I joined the Navy at his urging. He traveled to New Jersey to perform my marriage. Wiley had always been a big part of my life, and will be missed. It's good to know he's been made whole, and now resides with his parents and twelve siblings in the Promised Land.

A true gentleman, will be missed a lot!
