Carl Lee Wilcox's Obituary
Carl Lee Wilcox
We will miss our Energizer Bunny.
December 13, 2018, Carl passed away after a long and courageous battle with heart and lung disease. Carl loved and was a devoted family man, who thoroughly enjoyed spending time supporting his children in their activities. Fishing with his daughter Cori Lyn or helping his son Christopher with Anime Conventions. He enjoyed spending time with his Goddaughter Michelle, her husband Jaime and their 3 children Wylie, Bracken and Kaylee Wilson including tea parties.
Carl loved all aspects of hunting fishing and Mountain Man life. Carl worked with and made many leather items including his own Man clothing, powder horns, and guns. During his jobs with the school systems in Idaho and Colorado he would teach the 4th grade students about the Mountain Men of history. Carl was always busy doing something earning the nickname “The Energizer Bunny.”
Born January 24, 1955 to Sherman Roscoe and Marjorie Ooley Wilcox in Colorado Springs, Colorado. He married his soul mate Robyn Jensen Wilcox on March 27, 1982 and they enjoyed 36 years of marriage. Their life together was not always easy, but was always full of love.
The Wilcox family would like to acknowledge Lighten Hospice for their care and a special thank you to Christopher Blain RN.
