Charles D. Wilson 11/05/43-11/27/25
Charlie was born and raised in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and worked as an electrical engineer at Xerox for his entire career.
He was a wonderful father who enjoyed camping, coaching Little League and golfing with his sons. He and his wife were fortunate to take many interesting trips after both had retired.
He is survived by his wife, Mary[Mimi], his two sons, David and Andrew, his daughter-in-law, Cristen and three grandchildren, Thomas, Emily and Madelyn.
He leaves behind a devoted sister (Roberta Stuart), a sister-in-law (Beverly Wilson, who was married to his deceased brother, Robert), a brother (James Wilson) and several nieces and nephews.
No services are planned at this time. A private family memorial will be arranged at a later time.

I am very sorry to learn of Charlie/ David’s passing. I am cousin Doug Foster’s widow. I’m sure Doug was there to greet him at the Pearly Gates.❤️❤️
Sorry to hear about your dad Dave. I’m sure you guys had and shared lots of memories together. Prayers that you and your family move forward.
So sorry for your loss. The Wilson cousins were always great to be around, even though I was the little brat.
The family would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you to Bill Emerson for his support over the last several years. He visited Dad once a week and whenever we were out of town. Truly a devoted friend. Thank You Bill.
Dear David , Andy and Mimi,
Sending heartfelt condolences to all of you.

No son ever had a more devoted and supportive father.
Charlie and I met in 1966, both new employees at Xerox. We shared an apartment until he went off to the service, where he was trained in Morris Code. He could read or transmit at something like 40 words/min. When they periodically changed the code, he somehow quickly learned to translate!! Charlie was one smart guy.
Seldom a day passed that his devoted family members weren’t with him.
While I n no way related to mr wilson, i have a letter to him from a good friend in 1969. I got it by way of a purchased storage locker in or around kc mo. No other ideas about it but think it proper to see it returned to jis family. Please advise
Oh, Mimi, David and Andy, I just saw this. I’m so sorry. Charlie was a wonderful guy. Such a loss.
