Timothy Willison, of Coeur d’Alene, known by most as “Blair,” passed away on Sunday, July 28, 2013, at St. Joseph Regional Medical Center in Lewiston following a devastating car accident. Blair was born in Freemont, Calif., on Sept. 20, 1988.

Blair’s character was marked by his easygoing spirit and his love for cooking. He had a passion for movies and music. Amongst his many talents he was an aspiring chef, a karate kid, a football champion, a basketball fan, a fisherman and outdoorsman. He enjoyed playing pool, poker, experimented with DJ-ing and loved being with his friends and family. He even knew how to ride a unicycle and juggle.

Per his wishes, he was blessed with an opportunity to be a hero as an organ donor upon his demise. His donations have already aided many people in need of lifesaving transplants.

Blair will be missed dearly by all who really knew him. Donating his organs allowed him to live on through others.

Blair is survived by his parents, Timothy J. Willison, Deborah Proulx and stepmother Kim Willison; his siblings, Shannon Wilson, Roxanne Gadberry and brothers-in-law, Shane Wilson and Danny Gadberry; his aunts and uncles, Pat Willison, Heidi Willison, Ron and Crystal Proulx, Julie Proulx, JoAnne and Paul Morris, Mike Proulx, Ed and Sue Proulx, and Steve “Ozzie” Assmus; his cousins, Blake, Bailey, Alex and Tyler Willison, Mitchell and Irene Morris, Tonya Proulx, Eddie and Noelle Proulx, Larry Sherman, Robert and Amanda Sherman, and Juliana Benitez; nephew Seton Wilson; and an expected niece or nephew, Baby Gadberry.

He is preceded in death by his grandparents, George David and Jean Willison, and Conrad and Myra Jean Proulx; and aunt Paige Willison.

A private family memorial was held Tuesday, July 30, 2013, on Lake Coeur d’Alene near Tubb’s Hill. Anyone who wishes to aide in contributions on Blair’s behalf should send them to the St. Joseph Foundation, Carondelet House, P.O. Box 816, Lewiston, ID 83501 in memory of Timothy Blair Willison.
