Doug Wilson, age 66, of Hilliard, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Saturday, March 25, 2023, surrounded by his loving family. He had a kind, gentle, and loving presence about him and was loved by all who knew him. His sense of humor and positive spirit remained with him to the very end. He enjoyed many things in life: family, friends, Florida vacations, golfing, Hocking Hills, Ohio State Buckeyes, and NASCAR racing but one of his greatest pleasures came from his canine fur babies…he loved his dogs. Doug was a longtime camper at Lost Hollow Campgrounds where, among other things, he was masterful at roasting ears of corn over an open fire. He will truly be missed.
Doug was employed by the City of Columbus, Division of Water, and would have celebrated his 40thanniversary in May. Also, he was a member of The Refinery Church.
He is predeceased by his father Harold, mother Nora, brother Bruce, and sister Lori as well as his fur babies Rex, Champ, Brandon, Blake, Murphy, Montana, and Spirit. He is survived by his loving wife of 44 years Pam; brothers Eddie and Roger Wilson; sisters Tracy (Scott) Taylor, Libby (John) Skobrak, Frances (Donald) Ford, and Cathy Hoffman. Doug is also survived by those whom he had a unique closeness: brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law Dave and Kathy Uttley, Dwayne and Trish Justice; niece Kim Uttley, nephews Chris (Caitlin) Uttley, CJ (Steph) Uttley, Brent Justice, Kyle Justice, Cody Justice, Tristan Justice, David Hoffman; great niece Eloise Uttley; cousins Jamie (Kevin) Miles, Kaleb Miles and Kailee Steininger. Last but not least, the apple of his eye mini golden doodle Sydney.
