Natalie E. (Wilson) Andrysick

PRINCETON-Natalie E. (Wilson) Andrysick, 85, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, July 8, 2015 in the loving care of her cherished family. She was born in Waltham, a daughter of the late Lelan H. and Margaret (Simpson) Wilson.



Tina, as she was lovingly referred to by her family, graduated from Wayland High School and attended Framingham State College. She worked for many years as a bookkeeper for Marian Health Greeting Cards and Atlantic Business Forms. Always ready for the challenge of a good game of Scrabble, Tina enjoyed all types of board games as well as playing cards and reading a good book. On April 15th of this year, Tina celebrated 65 years of loving marriage to her beloved husband, William F. Andrysick. For more than 50 years, Tina and Bill lived in Hudson, where they enjoyed raising their family. She served as a leader for 15 years with the local Girl Scout Troop, and was active with the Hudson PTA when her children were in school. In 1999, Tina and Bill sold their home in Hudson and took to the road in their RV. Camping and spending time in their motor home was something the entire family has enjoyed through the years, and many a friend and memory were made during these trips. They travelled extensively throughout the United States and Canada, including through Alaska. Tina and Bill were longtime members of the “Seacoasters” RV Motor Home Club, of which Tina had served as the secretary for many years. Tina and Bill have recently been enjoying the new community at the Wachusett House in Princeton and the many new friends they have made there. Her family will forever remember Tina as a dedicated and loving wife, mother, “Gramma” and “Gigi”



In addition to her beloved husband, William, Tina leaves her three children, Nancy E, Barrette and her husband, Wayne of Brooklyn, CT, Douglas W. Andrysick and his wife, Mary of Princeton and Elaine M. Bower and her husband, Paul of Deerfield, WI; her six cherished grandchildren, John, Alan and Sharon Ywarsky, Brien and Daniel Andrysick, and Christine Bower; her two great grandchildren, Scott Andrade and Josephine Ywarsky; her sister, Eleanor Handy of Holliston; as well as many nieces and nephews.
