Joshua Seth Watterson

Joshua Seth Watterson, age 47, of Wellston, OH, passed away Monday, May 4, 2020, from injuries received in an automobile accident in Wellston.  He was born Oct. 12, 1972 in Los Angeles, California.

Josh’s goal in life was to live off the grid. He was a farmer, who was building a farm with fruit trees and vegetables.  Josh always had a smile on his face and a hug for everyone that he knew.  He was a genuine person who loved when the sun was shining and enjoyed the little things in life; he loved plants, trees, animals, and most of all he enjoyed his family and friends.  He always looked for the silver lining and the sun through the clouds. 

Josh is survived by his father, Seth Watterson (Dona) of Hilliard; mother, Helen Cantrell (John) of Delaware; sisters, Erin Hawk (Toby) of Columbus, D’Lyn Stinziano-Blengio (Gianluca) of Columbus, Stephanie Thomasson (Daniel) of California, and Abigail Boyd (Steven) of Georgia; along with several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. 

A celebration of Josh’s life will be held at his property at a later date. For those who wish, memorial contributions in Josh’s name can be given to the Jackson County Humane Society, P.O. Box 1, Jackson, Ohio 45640. Arrangements are under the direction of the McWilliams Funeral Home in Wellston. Online condolences can be sent to the family at www.mcwilliams-funeralhome.com
