Thomas Edward Wilson, age 75 of Millville, DE went home to be with the Lord on Friday, January 20, 2023 after a brief battle with cancer.
Born on February 8, 1947, he grew up and spent most of his adult years in Frederick, MD before retiring from Ecolab. Tom was very proud of his time in the service with the US Army as a Hawk Missile Operator during the Vietnam War (1967-1969).
He is survived by his wife, Jill Everhart Wilson. They celebrated their 50th anniversary last November. Together they have a daughter, Samantha Benfield (Greg) who was his pride and joy.
Tom will also be missed by his dog, Jack who was always right by his side. Tom was a dog lover and had many cherished pets whom he treated like his children.
Tom was predeceased by his daughter, Heather D. Wilson; his parents, Arthur and Irene Wilson, his sister and her husband, Wanda and Phil Parker, and his in-laws, Jake and Wini Everhart.
