Dear Margaret, Alexandra, Steve and Carroll,
I am so very sorry for your loss and my heart goes out to you all. I was so fortunate to have known Dave and also to have spent time during my adolescence with the Wilson family. I remember the feeling of warmth when visiting the Wilson's on Hyde Park. I have fond memories of Dave's sense of humour, gregarious laugh and generous nature. A true gentleman. I was also fortunate enough to have received some guidance from him almost 20 years ago, which I will always be grateful for.
You are in my thoughts and prayers,
with love,
Vanessa Robillard

I was very fortunate to have Dave - as my older brother. He was so good to me. we played cards together many times in the early years. I had rheumatic fever when young and suffered from leg aches at night. Dave would come to rub my lower legs with absorbine Jr. to take away the pain. he left home to work in Elliot Lake for a few years and when he would return home on holidays and Christmas - he had gifts for all of us and always knew the perfect gift for me. However, the best one for all of our family was our very first television set
In later years, I moved to Toronto area and so did Dave. I was renting a small apartment with a girlfriend and somehow Dave managed to rent an apartment in the same small building. so he was always there for me. But during that time, I met the man I eventually married. Dave somehow got hold of that man I was dating - and zeroed in on him that if he didn't treat his sister well - he would be in big trouble!!
When I found out about it - I was torn between - how dare he do that - to appreciation of how he wanted to look after me.
Dave always had the ability to make me laugh and he loved to tease me and strangely enough - I loved his teasing.
My memories of my brother Dave will always be with me and I will always be thankful to have a brother so caring and loving.

I send sincere sympathy, Marg to you and your family members. My memories of Dave stretch back to your time on Marilyn Drive when I often chatted with him as I walked by with our dogs. Thinking of you at this sad time. Rosemary Kennedy.

To the entire Wilson/Stevens/Hart families, especially my dear Marg:
It is hard to believe how long Dave has been part of our lives. From my first meeting of him when I was only 15 years old, and the Stevens and Hart families lived side by side as Elliot lake was just beginning, and Dave was there working at the Nordic Townsite. That was when you two met. I remember that well. I was fortunate to be a bridesmaid at your wedding. From then on in, your life has been an interesting and productive journey for you both. I visited you in Montreal when Steven was a toddler and Alexendra was a babe in arms. I also visited you in the Timmins area, and followed your journey. My father, Bob Hart certainly respected him and his judgement.
He was wise in many ways, and will be missed.
My love and thoughts to all.
Susan

He was a good man. I knew him through a business networking group and appreciated his support as I worked to set up my counselling practice. My sympathy to Marg and family.

Dear Marg and family--
We were new to the Glen Royal in April of this year. Even prior to moving in we met Dave in the lobby one day and enjoyed conversation. He was the first to welcome us to the building. Once we moved I, Juanita, would often see him in the lobby or sitting on the bench outside enjoying the sunshine. He was always so friendly. I have missed seeing him the past weeks and now understand that he was not well. He is missed. May memories bring comfort in the coming days.
Blessings, Brian and Juanita

Dearest Marg , Alexandra , Steve and Carroll ,
I will reach out to you each individually over the coming week . If could never be enough to say that I offer my condolences as that would not articulate what lays deep within my heart .
Your Dave was a wonderful , kind and loving example to me in my life and had a very distinct impact on my childhood and adolescence . For me he was a role model as I grew up , of a professional and family man combined and he influenced me and my life in many positive ways that I shall never take lightly and will cherish .
I will Remeber him always and his little jokes and sticker book trading and his sweet and precious sense of humour . I adored your Dad .
His love for you all was what made him the most special and I can only imagine him with his precious grandchildren . Each time I bring him to my mind in the last few days it is always with a smile on his face .
I am with you in spirit at this time as you bond together as a family through this loss .
To each of you love and hugs at this extremely difficult time .
Extra special love to my beautiful Carroll . I can't wait to give you a hug soon .
With love and affection ,
Tarina

It was with great sadness that our family heard of Dave's death.He was a very dear friend and we shall miss him. We met Dave and Marg in 1966 and have remained friends over the years. It was Dave who generously shared with Don his Canadian mining knowledge and experience.
Dave and Marg welcomed and gave us friendship and such wise counsel when we immigrated to Canada and joined them in Schumacher.
Dave was a person with integrity, intelligence, kindness and a
wonderful sense of humour. His strong personality and courage saw him in good stead through his lifetime.
We feel very honoured to have known Dave and send love and heartfelt condolences to his family.
Don and Barbara Parker.

I was very fortunate to have known Mr. Wilson and had the wonderful opportunity to visit with him both here in Montreal and at his home in Guelph. It was a great pleasure to speak with him and on many subjects. He had a way of making me feel welcome and important when he spoke to you. After meeting him, it was clear that he was a devoted Husband and Family man and his Family`s well being and happiness was of great importance to him. As a grown man I was lucky to have both my parents for a very long time losing my Father in 2008 and my Mother in 2015. Losing a parent is a very strange feeling as in life, from the time we are born, we only know the World with our parents in it. To have them gone is a great loss and at times, it can make you feel lost and in despair. My comfort and hopefully this can comfort his wife and Children as well, is that now he is at peace. He has been reunited with all those he lost while he was with us and he is at peace with no more pain, no more fear. My he rest eternally in God's grace.
