Wilson Fowler Obituary

Fowler, Wilson P.
CROPSEYVILLE - Wilson Phillip Fowler, passed from this life, at his home, on June 18, 2025, at the age of 55. The son of the late Elmer and Shirley (Parent) Fowler, Wilson was born in Cambridge, N.Y., and grew up in Grafton, N.Y. He attended Grafton Elementary and Berlin Central Schools. A resident of Cropseyville, Wilson was considered a jack of all trades by his family and friends. He could fix anything, and often offered assistance to those with an item in need of repair. With a little research on the internet, he soon could make an item as good as new. He enjoyed helping others, and especially liked flying model airplanes, and auto mechanics. Wilson loved times spent with his family and the joy he received from animals, especially his pet beagles, Spunky and Dixie. Wilson was the much loved husband of Billiejo (Crandall) Fowler; father of Joshua Fowler; brother of Kandy Paddock (late Donald); late Tina Michaels (late Michael Marrow) and Elmer Fowler, Jr. (Tina); uncle of Donald (Tabitha) Paddock, Jason, Justin, Christina and late Clurissa Fowler; great-uncle of Hailey Paddock; son-in-law of William Crandall and the late Anita (Mastropietro) Crandall; brother-in-law of Eleanor Crandall (Krista Crandall) and Robert Crandall. A private cremation was held, and a public memorial gathering will take place in the Thomas M. Barber Funeral Home, 66 Armsby Rd., in Petersburgh, N.Y., on Wednesday, from 5 until 7 p.m.
