Wilbur ‘Fuzz’ Tosten Sr., Hagerstown, MD — It is with deep sadness that we report the passing of Wilbur ‘Fuzz’ Tosten Sr. A beloved figure in his community, Fuzz passed away after a lengthy battle following a massive stroke that left him with severe brain damage. He had been receiving comfort care in a nursing facility for the past few months.
Known for his vitality and strength, Wilbur was a man who had no prior health conditions and lived life with the stamina of someone much younger. At 76, he had the build and spirit of a man in his forties. His daughter, Elizabeth Tosten, shared her heartfelt message through a fundraiser she started to help cover funeral costs.
"I know it’s almost Christmas and this time of the year can be hard for everyone," Elizabeth posted on Facebook, urging the community to assist in finalizing arrangements for her father’s last days. She emphasized the importance of giving him peace and ensuring that his final journey was met with dignity and care.
Support poured in from friends and family, with donations already accumulating for funeral costs, including the basic cremation and transport services. Cody Hite, Stephanie Tosten, and an anonymous donor have contributed to the fundraiser.
The loss of Wilbur has left a deep void in the hearts of those who knew him. Many shared their sympathies on Facebook, including heartfelt messages from Bill Tosten Jr., Ali Emerick, Ian Clifford, and others. "So very sorry," wrote Marianne Rickett, while Cora Metz offered a loving message: "I love you so much."
Our thoughts and prayers are with Wilbur’s family, especially his daughter Elizabeth, as they navigate through this challenging time.
May Wilbur ‘Fuzz’ Tosten Sr. rest in peace. Our deepest condolences go out to his family and loved ones.
