Margaret M. Wilson, 89, passed away on October 29, 2025. She was born on April 10, 1936 the daughter of the late Merle and Maude Troutman of Atwater, Ohio. She was a tomboy in her youth, enjoying sports and helping her dad with his projects. She developed a quick wit and loved telling jokes. Margaret retired from Key Bank after over 25 years as a teller. After retirement, she and her husband Red moved to Mississippi to be close to his family. After his death, she returned to Ohio. In her free time, she enjoyed the simple pleasures of life including family gatherings and tending her garden.

In addition to her parents, Margaret was preceded in death by her husband, Billy Gene "Red" Wilson; and sisters, Doris M. Pitts, Lillian M. Toth, and Alice M. Howes.

She will be dearly missed by many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

The family wants to extend a deep heartfelt thanks to both Grace Hospice and Pavilion of Stow for treating Margaret with dignity, respect, and compassion.

A graveside service will be held on Saturday, November 15, 2025 at 11:00 a.m. at Atwater Cemetery.
