Wilbur J. Daniel

Much has been written here about Wilbur. It's ALL true! I still enjoy our conversation about movies and I'll ALWAYS remember "Tea and Sympathy." :-)

We will greatly miss Mr. Daniel. He introduced us to many of our new favorite children's books. He always made the children's eyes light up when he would read at the Thursday morning storytime. We will always remember those special times.

My deepest sympathy. Wilbur was an excellent librarian. He loved life, and cherished his friendships. We worked together for many years at the Oxnard Public Library. He will be greatly missed.

It was with great pleasure I worked with Wilbur for a number of years at the Oxnard Public Library. Wilbur lived his life with courage and a vivacious flair. He loved people, good food, theater and opera, and most of all met each day with a great sense of humor and compassion. He will be greatly missed!

Wilbur, dear friend. I am a better person for having known you. I will miss you terribly.

Wilbur will be greatly missed by by all who knew him. We all lost a good friend.

The first time I met Wilbur, I had been invited over for one of his famous dinner parties. Little did I know then, that he was a gourmet chef who had prepared a sumptuous meal totally on my behalf. Knowing that my dietary needs were restrictive he made me my own special courses from soup to desert, while the others feasted on the many culinary delights he had prepared especially for them. That was the kind of sweet, caring, giving and considerate man he was. Giving of himself to please...

We miss your dry wit, sense of humor, story telling, cooking, parties and most of all YOU. You were one of the first persons we met on arriving in the desert and you introduced us to so may things. Thank you again for all the trips you took us on to the LA area. God speed you on your way on that last great trip you have made. Bob, Lonnie, and Charles

WLIBUR WAS TRULY ONE OF THE GREATEST GUYS I HAVE EVER MET. SUCH A KIND AND CARING PERSON AND WILL BE SADLY MISSED BY HIS MANY FRIENDS. I LOOKED FORWARD TO SEEING WILBUR EACH YEAR THAT I VISITED IN PALM SPRINGS AND HE WOULD USUALLY HAVE ME OVER FOR ONE OF HIS GREAT MEALS.
