Not sure what to say?

I wish to send my sincere condolences and prayers to Mr. Wilbur Eggleston's family. I did not know Mr. Eggleston, but I feel in my heart that I have known him all of my life. It's rare that you read about a role model who always kept hope alive for the next generations to follow. I am member of the Free and Accepted Masons in California.

Mr. Eggleston was a very influeintial person in my entire family's lives. He was known as my "uncle gettin' about." He was always on the go, but never to busy to lend a helping hand in the community. He will truly be missed.

I was fortunate to have Mr. Eggleston as a teacher at Pisgah High School, he enriched every life he touched. My fondest memory of him is his Love for Chocolate....and our class ate it often, RIP sir.

my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family, Deb!!!

My prayers and my deepest sympathy to the Eggleston family. A special note to Robert, Eugene, and Debbie. I was not a student of Mr. Eggleston at Pisgah High school, but it seemed as though everyone came in contact with him while attending classes there. His outstanding character was reflected in the three of you and I am certain the same is true of your younger siblings. God bless you and your entire family in this time of grief. David Sheppard, Class of 1968, PHS.

LaTiece and family, My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time, Sincerely, Joyce Moore Johnson Phila, Pa

I remember Wilbur when he and some of his students in Canton built and positioned a basketball backboard, basket for my three sons near Clyde.
I have always remembered his kindness in that good deed. roy brock
