Melvin Ray Wilson
October 12, 1951 — April 22, 2022
Melvin Ray Wilson passed away with loving family members by his side on 4/22/2022.
Born in St Joseph MO 10/12/1951, he moved to Oregon in 1977. There he worked at the Fairview Training Center in the late 70’s, early 80’s. He also drove school bus for many years in the Amity area as well as the Woodburn area. But his life time love was playing guitar. He began playing professionally when he was 16 and never stopped. He played and entertained in several bands (primarily -Evening Rain, The Nine O'clock Band, Stampede, Quick Silver) throughout the valley and coastal towns. Most recently he volunteered three times a week to play solo and sing for Northend Senior Solutions in Lincoln City.
He was loved and will be missed dearly. What goes up…. Must come down.
