Laurine Wilson
1933-2025
The death of Laurine Wilson (Killam), age 91, of The Glades, N.B., occurred on Monday, January 6th, 2025, at the Jordan LifeCare Centre.
Born in Forest Hill, she was the daughter of the late Florence May Killam (Douthwright) and Henry Burpee Killam. Laurine worked for Co-op Atlantic for over 20 years after completing a diploma in bookkeeping and accounting at NBCC (1972). She loved tending to her flower gardens, tracking weather patterns, taking bus tours around regional historical sites, and using her craft talent to create loppie sweaters, and needle point pictures for her loved ones. Most of all, she was a devoted mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, who always went the extra mile to have everyone’s favorites available at each visit.
Laurine is survived by son, Garnett Wilson (Judy MacDonald); daughter, Debbie Colpitts (Ernie Dunham); grandchildren, Christopher (Alicia), Amber, Bryce, Kassandra; great-grandchildren Hailey, Michelle, Andre, and Autumn, and great-great grandson, Dustin, along with several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband, Leroy Wilson; brother, Howard Killam; sister, Josie Taylor, and son-in-law, Eric Colpitts.
