Robert Lewis Wilson

Robert Lewis Wilson, of Orange, passed away peacefully on Dec. 31, 2013 at the age of 76. Known to all as Bob, he was a longtime resident of Orange.

He was born Sept. 7, 1937 in Du Quoin, Illinois and served in the Navy. "Red" retired from Pacific Bell in the 80's and then worked several jobs before finally retiring in 2000. Bob was a regular golfer and an avid Angel Baseball fan - a season ticket holder for over 20 years.

He is survived by his daughters, Elizabeth "Lisa" Elmore, Kathi Glover and Kelly Boslow; sons-in-law, Ryan Glover and Derrick Boslow; and grandchildren, Steven, Morgan, Brooke, Michael, Mason and Hayden.

Services were held on Jan. 6 followed by a celebration of Bob's life. Attendees wore Angels Baseball causal attire to help his daughters take their Dad out to the ballgame one last time.

Donations can be made to The American Diabetes Association in Bob's name.
