Rose Wilson

WE LOVE YOU Rose Agnes (O’Clair) Wilson of Thomaston and Largo, FL, 87, passed away peacefully in Florida at Oak Manor Healthcare on February 10, 2017 after a period of declining health. Rose was born in St. Albans, Maine to parents George and Leota O’Clair and was one of 17 children. Rose and her husband Norman lived in Thomaston, Maine while raising their 6 children. For many years she chose to be a stay at home mom and was a great homemaker to her family. She enjoyed spending summers at her family camp on McGrath Pond in Oakland, Maine. She was active leader in both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. For many years Rose was a crossing guard at the Thomaston grammar school helping students across Route 1. Rose had a zest for life, loved spending time with family, loved to laugh, loved to cook (it came natural to her), and loved to play cards. Rose’s family said she was an amazing woman who always told you her options, right or wrong, and that she was always right…just ask her!  Rose wintered in Florida from 1982 to the present time.  Left to cherish her memories is her daughter- Linda Wentworth of Rockland, ME, and her five sons, Gerald (Mina) of Westerville, OH, James (Terrie) of Wilton, ME, Paul (Alison) of Cushing, ME, Patrick and his companion Jessie Buchanan of Thomaston, ME, and Timothy (Kelly) of Thomaston, ME. She also leaves behind her sister Edna Gamage of Spruce Head, ME as well as 14 grandchildren, and 7 great grandchildren, along with many friends. She is predeceased by her husband, Norman G. Wilson and granddaughter Ashton Elizabeth Wilson. A memorial service is planned for April 21 st , 2017 at 10:30 a.m. where Rose will be laid beside her husband Norman in the Village Cemetery, Erin Street, Thomaston, ME.
