My deepest sympathies go out to all of Will's family and friends. I met Will last year when he came to Augusta County to find a house in the mountains. We found him a house and he loved the area and had great plans for the house I sold him. Will also wanted to start a business here and we had many conversations over the treasures he found here and there. Thanks to Ginny for getting in touch with me. Will, you will be greatly missed!

Will,
I must say that you were a great person and funny as well. I will miss all the times we would have just talking and cracking up. I will never forget the time when you told me to look through your telescope to see the flag on the moon.(and I looked to see it). I will miss you my friend!! I will cheerish the times we had when you and Ginny lived next door to me in Diamond Springs, we never let that property line make a difference, the cook outs, relaxing in the pool, fun times.....God has a great guy up there with him and you will be alive in my heart forever. To Will's family, my thoughts and prayers are with you and I share the loss.

Charleen and Michael
Conn. We were in town shortly before he passed . I'm glad I got to see and talk with him. We planned on a motorcycle ride this spring in the mountains around his mountain home. I've known Will since 1980 and had many part buying and searches with him. He will be missed! God bless his soul!
