Dearest Cousin Bev and Family; Our hearts and prayers and love are with you at this sad time. Dick is now a FULL Colonel in the Lord's Army. Even though we did not know him well--he was a "Wilson/Willson" Cousin and beloved by all of us Wilsons. He had a full and interesting life. I sincerely hope that his memories will be written and shared with all of us. That would be wonderful to share his life with his descendants and loved ones. My motto is: "The Best Way to Live a Life is to Spend It on Something That Will Outlast It".
