Michael J. Wilson, 77, of Merrimack, NH passed away on December 14th, 2024, after a period of declining health.

He was born in Milwaukee, WI on March 2nd, 1947, to the late Gordon and Nelda (Quinn) Wilson. He was raised in Wisconsin and New Hampshire, graduated from Nashua High School, and received his bachelor's degree in Political Science from the University of New Hampshire in 1969.

Mike worked for L&M Sales Associates as a national sales manager, Sports Display Inc. as a regional sales manager, and finally for Zoom Media as their New Hampshire sales representative.

Being very supportive of his children and grandchildren, Mike and his late wife Mary Lee enjoyed attending countless sporting events and band concerts.  He sat on the board of the Piscataqua Council of Campfire Girls, served as the home show announcer for the Nashua Spartans Drum and Bugle Corps, and coached MYA soccer and baseball.

Along with his wife, he was an enthusiastic collector of Imperial glass. They were both heavily involved with the National Imperial Glass Collectors Society where Michael served five years as the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and four years as the President.

Along with his parents, Michael is predeceased by his loving wife of nearly 54 years, Mary Lee (Young) Wilson, and his two brothers: Doug Wilson and Kevin Wilson.

He will be forever loved and remembered by his two children: daughter Kristin (Wilson) Francis and husband Jay, son David Wilson and wife Kathie; four grandchildren: Benjamin and Mairin Francis, Jacob and Kaleigh Wilson; two brothers: Steve Wilson and Bruce Wilson; along with several nieces and nephews.

In accordance with Michael's wishes, a Celebration of Life will be held for the family at a later date, followed by a private burial at Pine Grove Cemetery in Barrington, NH.
