Aaron "Tub" Matthew Wilson

Aaron Matthew Wilson, also known as "Tub," was born on June 5, 1980, in Tahlequah Oklahoma, and departed from this world on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, at the age of 44. He was a man who embodied a remarkable sense of humor that endeared him to all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Aaron was well known for his ability to lift spirits with his quick wit and infectious laughter, always ready with a joke to bring joy to those around him. He enjoyed the outdoors, especially hunting, fishing, gigging crawdads, picking wild onions, and cooking and grilling. He took great comfort in reading his bible and sitting outside listening to gospel music. These passions not only enriched his life but also served as a source of inspiration for those who knew him. Aaron's presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
