Ellsworth
Joshua Donald Wilbur,38, died unexpectedly at home on July 13, 2024. He was born in Eastbrook, Sept 4th, 1985, the son of Charles E. Wilbur and Elisa (Leeman) Sinclair.
First and foremost, he is loved and adored by his family, especially his mother Elisa and sister Jovarna. He would go to the end of the earth for them. Always joked I would look good in orange if necessary. His heart overflowed with love for his nephew, "Mini Me" Clayton.
Keanna, Kelly, Koda, may not have been his biological children but he loved and raised them as if they had been his own. Not to mention all the other children he loved and helped raise along the way including his fur babies Jasmine Marie, Toretto, and Harley.
Josh would help anyone in need day or night. He enjoyed spending time at camp, going hunting, working on vehicles, and spending time with his friends.
Josh is survived by his mother Elisa Sinclair, and husband Dean; sister Jovarna Sinclair and partner Matthew Williams and their son, his very special nephew Clayton, lots of aunts and uncles, cousins, and his second set of parents, Uncle Mike and Auntie Carol; longtime girlfriend Shelby Dow. Josh is predeceased by his father, Charles E. Wilbur, grandparents Elisha (Skip) and Nancy Leeman, Gerald and Maxine Wilbur, and fur baby Jasmine Marie.
A Celebration of Life will be held at 5pm, Fri. July 19, 2024, at Jordan-Fernald, 113 Franklin St., Ellsworth.
