Theodore “Teddy” Wilson passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday June 9th, 2021 at the age of 73.
For those who knew him, it’s likely you didn’t know much beyond his solemn, rough and tough exterior. While death is inevitable and regularly accompanied by sadness, in the case of Teddy – we’ve gained a newfound respect and joy learning about the good things he’s done unbeknownst to us. Life is short, so if you’re reading this, take our advice…do more, be more, apologize more, and love more.
Teddy was an accomplished wrestler in high school. He did multiple tours in Vietnam while in the Air Force. Teddy was an avid outdoorsman who liked to hunt, fish, camp, snowmobile, ride ATVs, and garden (yes, garden wasn’t a typo…it’s never too late to garden supposedly). He was also passionate about his Harley Davidson motorcycles.
Teddy is survived by his children Desiree and Zachary. He is survived by his siblings; Anthony, Timothy, Joseph, Christine, and Lisa. He is reunited with those who’ve passed before him; Edith (mother), Theodore Sr. (father), and siblings Bernadette, Rebecca, Gary, Christopher, and Michael.
Teddys funeral service will be a private event at Spooner Veterans Memorial. For all others, we appreciate you and ask that you say a quick prayer, or raise a glass. Yes, raising a can works too. Teddy’s Celebration of Life will take place at 334 Prentice Street South Clayton, WI on July 7, 2021 at 4 PM.
