Obituary of David Wilkinson

David Wilkinson 

May 11, 1959 – September 4, 2023 

  David Brian Wilkinson passed away on September 4, 2023, at the age of 64. Born and raised in Windsor, David attended Hugh Beaton Elementary School and W.D. Lowe Secondary School before working at the General Motors Transmission plant. As a kid, David could often be found cruising the neighbourhood on his bike with his buddies or roughhousing with his brothers. He enjoyed motorcycles and a wide range of music and especially loved a night out dancing at the disco. David did his best to overcome the slings and arrows of life and, despite its challenges, never lost his sense of humour. David will be missed by his son Matthew, brothers Chris (Maureen), Mark, and Jeffrey (Karen; previously Nancy), seven nieces and nephews, many cousins, and friends. He is pre-deceased by his parents, Johnny and Vallie Wilkinson, his nephew Adam, and his sister-in-law, Mary. David’s family plans to celebrate his life privately, and in lieu of flowers, asks that you please consider donating to the Canadian Mental Health Association (https://cmha.ca/how-you-can-help/donate).  Arrangements entrusted to SIMPLE CHOICE (Dougall), 519-254-2585.
