I am sorry for your loss. Mr Wilton was one of my teachers at Oromocto High School. He came to my swearing in ceremony when I was first elected MLA. And I was so pleased he attended our 30th hs reunion this July in Oromocto. Nice man, always smiling and kind.

Dear Marie & Family, I was sorry to hear that Ross has passed on, and I extend my condolences to you and the family. I never knew Ross all that well, but he always came across as someone who really cared about people. He was always friendly and encouraging, and seemed to me to be a great example of what a Christian man should be. I'm sure his example and influence has made a difference in the lives of a great many people, and will continue to do so. I pray that the peace that passes understanding will sustain you in this time of loss, and God will guide you in the days ahead. Your brother in Christ Dean Annis

Dear Marie and Family We are sorry to learn of your loss. We know that Ross will be greatly missed by so many people but especially by you, his beloved family. Ross was absolutely dedicated to everything he undertook. Though his dedication and hard work he accomplished much for the lives of others. He was always very gracious and this was revealed by his almost constant smile, He listened carefully and patiently to others and then would thoughtfully share the wisdom he had gained from God’s Word and his life’s experience. We are thankful for his life. May Jesus give you his comfort in the days ahead. Sincerely Dean & Louise MacDonald

Marie, Leah, Dan and extended family. Sorry to read of Ross's passing. Sincere condolences. While Chris got to know Ross through choir, I got to work with Ross on student scheduling back in the 1970's. He was a gentleman to work with. I know you can take comfort realizing that he lived well and that we will all meet again. Chris and Dennis

Mrs. Wilton and Family, My condolences and prayers to you as you both mourn Mr. Wilton’s passing, yet also celebrate his life - which was a life well lived. Mr. Wilton was my grade 10 biology teacher at OHS. I remember him reviewing an assignment with me, and pointing out the areas that I could have done better in, and he did this in a caring and supportive way. I also remember a field trip with him, and how impressed I was with his knowledge and attention to details. Years later, I had the wonderful opportunity to reconnect with Ross at BSBC after a talk I had given there. He had a significant impact on me throughout my studies and life. May you know the comfort and reassurance of Christ’s resurrection at this time. In faith, Harold King

I'm sorry to hear this news. There were generations of students at OHS that Ross taught. I remember taking grade 10 high school biology with Ross and being absolutely enthralled with the subject. He was exciting and held us to a high standard. Mr Wilton was one of the formative persons in my life and he played a role in my eventual decision to pursue science as a career and become a professor. I also remember his work ethic and offers to help after class or during lunch which I took advantage of. I'm grateful for all of it - his clarity of mind, his inspiring words, and his humanity. My sincere condolences to his family Scott Prosser

Ross was my grad 10 Biology teacher at OHS. I also had the privilege of travelling along side his son, Dan Wilton at Brunswick St Baptist, then the wonderful time of praying, learning, and being on committees with Dan’s son, Jon! How wonderful to have been blessed with this powerful genealogy. A great legacy and may God continue to create deep spiritual connections during this time of mourning.
