Not sure what to say?

I saw my Dad, in an open vision back last April, 2018. An angel came for me and Apostle David E. Taylor saying: JESUS needs to see both of you in Heaven right now. But I said to David: I have never flown before. David told me to close my eyes and I did then he said open your eyes and what I saw was so beautiful!!! Standing in Heaven with Apostle David and this Angel. The Angel said we must hurry JESUS wants to see you both, we must go! Then off in the distance I hear somebody calling my name:...

Oh Dad Wigmore, It's days like today when it would be so good to be able to talk to you and share with you how things are going here, but you are with the LORD and one day before long, Skip and I will be making that journey. Sure do miss you..one of my fondest memories was when I brought the banjo by and you plucked its strings. My heart was overjoyed. Your love for classical music, you passed on to your son Skip, as well as your admiration for sports. So thankful for the memories. ...

I have fond memories of NWP - and "Coach" was at the center of many of them. He nicknamed me "Hopalong" when I injured my knee and had to watch gym class from the stands with that cast. Always with a kind word and reassuring manner, he meant so much to so many. My sincerest condolences to the family on the loss of such a great man. Fair winds and following seas!

Who would ever forget all those summer basketball games at NWP Jr. High or having to climb the rope to the top of the gym ceiling with Coach "encouraging"you. I feel so lucky that I saw Coach again in Raleigh at one of my son's baseball practices where Coach John Wigmore was in charge and I was able to introduce my son to my Coach Wigmore. Who would have ever thought that would have happened some 45 years later. Thanks for the memories Coach.

"Coach" 24/7/365. One of God's MVP.

Coach Wigmore could be tough on you when you needed him to be but he was a very compassionate man. When my knee popped out of joint in gym class, he ran over and carried me out of the gym telling me I was going to be okay. Rest in peace, Coach. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

When I think NWP Jr. Hi. I always think COACH WIGMORE. My deepest regrets to the Wigmore family. His memory will live on forever, he touched many lives including mine.

What a wonderful man. So many great memories of him at NWP!! Thoughts and prayers to your family.

Thinking of Coach Wigmore will always bring back so many memories of NWPMS. Sorry for your loss.
