In Memory of
Michael Wrightsell
March 2, 1956 – August 26, 2025 - Age 69

Obituary

Peacefully at the Southampton Hospital, with family by his side.

 

Predeceased by his parents Gordon ‘Rusty’ and Marylou ‘Bette’ Wrightsell of Erieau, Ontario and his wife Candace Wrightsell of Southampton.

 

Survived by his children Matthew Wrightsell (Sue), Byron Wrightsell (Chantelle), and Mandy Wrightsell (Joe) and six grandchildren: Kate, Mason, Kalei, Noah, Kylie, and Skyler. Brother to Vicky Vachon (Rick) of Picton, Ontario and Connie Lewis (Matt) of Orton, Ontario.

 

A commercial fisherman from the age of 13, Mike grew up in Erieau, Ontario before moving to Southampton to join Captain William ‘Bill’ Jackson and Inland Sea Products for more than 40 years.  A special thanks goes to Greg Jackson and the crew of the NOSKCA-J for Mike’s last ride just days before he passed.

 

Mike’s favourite place to be was watching anyone he knew, and particularly his kids and grandkids, at the rink. As a result, in lieu of flowers, the family asks that any charitable donations be made to youth sports program in Mike’s name.

 

Cremation has taken place.
