Gary Raymond Wilson

Gary Raymond Wilson, 72, of Monessen, formerly of Pittsburgh, passed away Sunday, October 1, 2023. He was born in Pittsburgh on February 28, 1951 and was the son to the late Raymond J. and Cecelia E. (Zolinas) Wilson. Gary went to Rosedale Technical Institute where he obtained an Associates Degree as a Diesel Technician. He worked so hard, getting one certification after another, until he reached "Master Technician" levels. He even received a certificate that said he was a "Doctorate of Diesel Mechanics" which then became a lifelong joke that he, in fact, was a doctor. He also worked 21+ years for Mercy Hospital as a Sterile Processing Technician. He enjoyed being outdoors. Hunting, fishing and even camping - Laurel Hill State Park was one of his favorite spots. However, he would go hunting & fishing wherever he had the chance to go.
