Sympathy today for your family and loved ones. I had the pleasure of taking care of Wilbur. Although, I did not know him as well as other, I was happy to reminisce in his memories with those that did. Upon his passing I and 3 others gathered around his bed as they told stories of Wilbur. In our prayers and a pleasure to provide comfort
