It's with sad and heavy hearts that we say goodbye to our Mother, Muriel (nee Hickerson) Wilson, who passed away on January 12, 2018 at the Brockville General Hospital. Born June 17, 1930 in Trenton Ontario, predeceased by her husband Walter Wilson, infant daughter Linda Marie, loving parents Carrie & Everett Hickerson, brothers Claude & Jack Hickerson & sister Dianna (Hickerson) Royer. A loving mother and grandmother survived by daughters Katherine Wilson, Carol (Terry) Duperron, son Tom (Monica) Wilson; Grandchildren Eric, Philip, Jessica, Quintin, Conner & Great Grandchildren Nicholas & Grace. Also survived by Brothers James (Carol) Hickerson, Doug (Georgina) Hickerson, Sisters Jean Chestnut, Evelyn Snelling & Carol (Larry) Greig and many nieces & nephews. Many will remember Muriel from the Dominion Store where she worked for many years in both Trenton and Prescott, Ontario. After retiring she and Walter moved from Prescott to Ompah where they were active members of the Ompah Conservation Association. She loved nature and enjoyed watching the wildlife on her Ompah property. Muriel was a true sports fan at heart. She especially loved hockey, baseball and figure skating. She loved a good game of cards, bingo and the sound of the winning slot machine at the casino. We shall miss her sense of humour, warmth and wisdom. Our thanks goes out to those who cared for her during her illness. Special thanks to Dr. Iliescu and the amazing team at the Bayshore Renal Clinic, the Bayshore Homecare staff and the wonderful kind and caring staff at the Brockville General Hospital. Mom was a truly caring and giving person who will be in our hearts forever. As per her wishes there will be no funeral service. A celebration of life to be announced in the spring. Donations to the Kidney Foundation would be appreciated. Arrangements entrusted to the Irvine Funeral Home, 4 James St., E., Brockville. Visit www.irvinememorial.com for more information.
