Thomas Wilson Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Tom graduated from Stevenson High School and went on to work several jobs before later working for Wal-Mart in Jonesville for over 20 years. Tom enjoyed being outdoors camping, hunting, fishing and going for motorcycle rides. He was also an animal lover and had a big heart for his dogs.
Tom is survived by three siblings, Michael Wilson, John (Carol) Wilson, and Claudia Gillenwater; a niece and nephew; and his girlfriend, Joan Ellenwood.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
A memorial service for Tom Wilson will take place at a later date at VanHorn-Eagle Funeral Home in Hillsdale.
