Dear Mary,
I have many happy memories of chatting with you and John while riding the bike or walking the treadmill at  Magill and Gardner.  You both were so much fun and John had such a warm and friendly personality. I know he must be sorely missed by you and your family.  I was away when the obituary was in the Ledger and Donna Culley saved it and passed it along to me.   John is another star in the Heavens….shining.
My sincere condolences.
Jeanne Scammell

I met John when I worked at NE Credit in Boston and he worked at Controller Services in South Boston 40 Years ago.  John and I Car pooled together and went striper fishing together at Norris Reservation and Dutch Phelps on the North River. It would take hours to tell all our fishing stories and laughs we had together.

John was the most sincere person I have ever known. He would look at you with a slight angle to his head and smile with a twinkle in his eye.  Thanks for all the memories John. I will cherish them all.

All my love to Mary, Emmy, and John Jr.

Rich Greim

So sorry to read of the passing of John.  He was good friend and a very knowledgeable person who could elaborate, as everyone knew,  on any aspect of fishing and where to go fishing.   
We first met at Belson Bait and it resulted in a friendship ever since
Best wishes to Mary and the Family.
Fondly,
Joe Mig


I met John at the FTCC Senior  luncheon on Thursdays.  I worked the door greeting the Seniors as they came in.  John  was always such a delight.  He always had a joke or story and he always had a big smile on his face.  He will be missed by so many people.  My thoughts and prayers go out to Mary and his family.

John’s English cousins John, Rosemary and Les send their deepest condolences to Mary, Emmy and John Jr. and their families. John was a remarkable man whom we were delighted finally to get to know in 1995-1996, when we were able to appreciate what a lovely, kind and humorous person he was.  In later years we were only able to correspond from afar but we always enjoyed reading his interesting emails recounting the active life he continued to lead. It was a privilege to have known John and we were so sad to learn of his passing.
With love and sympathy from John, Laura and Benito in Oxford, England, from Rosemary, Tom and Hannah in Edinburgh, Scotland, and from Les in Liverpool, England. RIP John.


I had the privilege of meeting Mr Wilson at the Belsan Bait and Tackle shop on a few occasions and enjoyed talking to him. Rest In Peace John and enjoy the fishing in heaven!  May God ease the pain of your loss, Mrs Wilson, along with the rest of you family. 

As a volunteer server, I met John at the FTCC Thursday Senior Lunch. He and his wife attended every week and as I came to know him, he made me laugh and appreciated every little thing I did to make his Lunch enjoyable. As the years went on, I enjoyed our chats and his sense of humor. He was such a positive man. He will be missed by me and many.  I know that he “made a difference” because of his caring and kindnesses.
My Sincerest Sympathy and Condolences for Your Family, Dale Balog


When I was 10 years old I got my first job working at Belsan’s. I worked with Mr. Wilson and Sal every Tuesday and Wednesday. I don’t believe I’ll ever have another man like Mr. Wilson in my life. I used to get his coffee every morning and cherish his company working alongside him at the store. He felt like family. I’ll never forget his signature handshake, his comedy, his ability to lighten up anyone’s day, and the way he carried himself as a stand up guy that I will always strive to be. He gave me cartoon joke books upon his retirement with a message inside the front cover. It reads “7/31/13- To my friend Ethan- you will read these cartoons + enjoy them as I have over the years. Good luck Ethan- I will never forget the good times we had working together at Belsan’s bait + tackle! John Wilson”.  I will never forget either John. I wish I could tell him I just graduated nursing school and how much he personally influenced my life and showed me who a man is. He will be missed dearly.
