SOUTH PARIS — Colin Wilson, 69, of South Paris, passed away Sunday, July 2, at his residence.
Colin was a man of few words and many talents, artist, mechanic, carpenter, truck driver, prospector, antique dealer, cabinetmaker… In short, he was a man of many interests. On Sunday, July 2, the old man drifted Northward one last time in search of new adventure.
Colin is survived by his mother, Betty Atkinson; his wife, Janice Wilson; his children, Gordon Wilson, Melissa Wels and her husband, Scott, John McCabe and his wife, Alda, Scott Wilson and his wife, Jennifer Stevens, and Rachel Crocker. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Lucas Blackburn, Shayla Stevens, Jayda Stevens, Jamie McCabe, Evan Smith; and four brothers, Ken, Kirk, Kevin and Kerry.
The truth is that the man lived a long and honorable life and he is survived by a multitude of friends and family. Condolences can be expressed at www.chandlerfunerals.com.
