David C. Wilson

          David Charles Wilson of Tillsonburg, Ontario in his 64th year, born June 4, 1962, has ended his lengthy cancer battle on Friday January 16, 2026 at home peacefully with his partner Dawn DeBuck by his side. 

          Survived by his sisters Judy Wilson and Diana Wilson, along with many cousins, Aunts, Uncles, and nephews.  Predeceased by parents Louise and Doug Wilson, step mom Leny, and brothers Dougie Wilson and Dan Wilson.  Dave was the ‘stepped up’ Dad to Jeff (Maggie) Wilson and their daughter Brylee Wilson, Josh (Aliya) Wilson, Amber DeBuck, Chelsea (Tanner) Pollard, and Serena Taylor.  Not only did Dave take on this role, he became the next best thing and that was being the coolest GRAMPS to his favourite little humans Wyatt, Sofia, Nora, Rory, and Gregory.

          Dave was known as a hard - working steel worker.  He took a huge interest in arrowheads and native artifacts, in history, and his most favourite band “The Hip”. 

Now, be at peace and continue WILSIFYING everything….until we meet again.

          A special Thank you to Carepartners Team 6 – Johanna, Randy, Kristen, Leanne, Sarah, Terri – for the exceptional care provided over the last 4 years during this lengthy battle.
