Harold Steeves Wilson
1925-2020
Harold Steeves Wilson, 94, of Forest Dale Home and formerly
of Demoiselle Creek went to be with his Lord and Saviour on February
15th, 2020. He passed away peacefully at the home
with his family by his side.
Harold was born in Demoiselle Creek, Albert County on May 22,
1925 the son of the late Bliss and Bernice (Simmons)
Wilson.
Throughout his working years he worked at various lumber
mills, Gypsum Company, T. Eaton Company, T.P Downey & Sons and
retired from Domtar. He was a hard worker and enjoyed working
in the woods, even in his later years he could still keep up with the
younger guys. Harold was small in stature but that didn’t
stop him as he was very capable and strong. Harold was a
very faithful member of the Albert Mines Baptist Church and was an
Honorary Deacon. He was very dedicated to his church and
family. He and his wife were very proud of the
family they raised and felt surrounded by love. He thoroughly enjoyed
his weekly outings to the Superstore for the donuts and
coffee. Harold cherished the simple things in life and was
very content, he thanked his Lord everyday for all his
blessings. He will be remembered for his gentle smile and
kind and generous heart. His message would be clear, think
of the new life I am beginning and not the one that has
ended.
Romans 6:4 We were buried therefore with
him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead
by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of
life.
He will be deeply missed by his wife and best friend of 72
years, Eileen; his daughter, Brenda Johnson (Eddie) of Lower
Coverdale; sons, Everett Wilson of Lakeside, Randy Wilson of Riverview
and Darrin Wilson of Hillsborough; several treasured grandchildren and
precious great grandchildren; sisters, Mary Jessiman of Moncton and
Charlotte Young of Ontario. He will also be missed by
in-laws, Erma and Don Freeman and by all his extended family, nieces,
nephews and church family and friends.
He was predeceased by son, Hinson; daughter-in-law, Janet;
sisters, Gertrude Rose (John), Helen Wilson; brothers, Carl, Carmen
(Ruby) and Reginald (Kate); brothers-in-law, Bob Jessiman and Bill
Young. He is also now being greeted by his precious
grandchildren that had gone before him.
Honouring Harold’s own wishes there will be no
visitation. A Memorial service and Celebration of his Life
will be held at the Albert County Funeral Home on Wednesday, February
19th, 2020 at 2:00pm with Rev. Jim Rae officiating.
