Dear Family,

The helping community lost a fine person. I met him when he served for a time at Buckhead Christian Ministry. What a blessing he was.

John and Gretchen,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

To the family and friends of Dr Willingham you have my deepest sympathy in the loose of this great man.

Mrs. Willingham and Family

Our prayers go out to you all. Dr. Willingham was a pleasure and joy to work with. His kindness and joyful manner will truly be missed.

My sympathies go to the Willingham family. I had the good fortune to work with Dr. Willingham in one of his later careers as a consultant to the Social Security disability program. I remember him for his kindness, knowledge and integrity.

What a loss we all share with Dr Willingham's loss, BUT he's in a better place. I am so grateful for the guidance he gave me , his quiet witness thru the life he lived, for his loyalty, and mostly for his friendship. Anne, I sure your loss will feel the greatest, but know that many of us loved him as you do. He loved you and his kids SO DEARLY.
MY HOPE IS TO BE HALF THE MAN HE WAS-his smile, his demeanor, his laugh,his witness, his concern for others. My prayers for comfort to you all....

Our thoughts and prayers are with Bobby's family at this time. Our families go back many years and we treasure this friendship. Ellen and I have fond memories of visiting with Bobby and Anne at Clay's rehearsal party. We will be thinking of you at 2 o'clock on Tuesday.
