Obituary of Red Wilson

Wilson, Glenna "Red" Born December 17, 1930 in Mount Forest, Red and her family moved to Guelph in 1934 where she lived out her days in her beloved town. She passed away at Morriston Park Nursing Home on Wednesday, February 9, 2022, in her 92nd year. She joins her beloved husband, Cal (2003). She was the proud and loving mother of Jay Wilson (Rachel), Callie Santin (Paul), the late Shane Wilson (2015) and stepmother of Brad Marquette (Blanca). Red was the cherished grandmother of Taylor Wilson, Gabrielle Santin, Madeleine Wilson, Hunter Wilson, Elijah Santin, Blake Wilson, Sarah Patmore and Nathan Patmore. She will be fondly remembered by her daughter-in-law Christine Wilson and by many nieces, nephews and extended family. Red was an amazing storyteller, musician, artist, lover of food and travel and knew how to throw an epic Christmas Eve party. She lit up any room she entered with her beautiful green eyes, fiery red hair and her unforgettable smile. The family wishes to thank Red’s ‘Morriston Park Nursing Home family’ for all of their loving care, kindness and compassion over the last nine years. Cremation has taken place.
