Happy birthday. You were the best boss I ever had. God Bless you
Lucy Flannagan

Such a wonderful boss and friend. Was very kind to me since I met him in 1970. I will never forget how he allowed me to bring my baby son, now 37, to work at the Beacon Technology office. RIP dear friend. Miss you and your family

To Eric - I know this is a difficult time for you and Lisa. When my mother passed away a few weeks ago, a friend shared something with me that helped so I want to pass that along to you. There were many things that your father did that helped to make you the good person that you are. Think about those things over the next few days and it will help you to better celebrate his life. My prayers are with you and your family.

With deep sympathy on Willard's passing.. Please know my thoughts are with you, Toni. Mom spoke of you both so kindly.
Barb Schwarz Egerton (Jean and Mark Schwarz' daughter)

Please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of one of the most brilliant and kindest man I had the honor of knowing personally and professionally. May his wonderful family find peace in knowing how much he was loved and respected. I will never forget him. RIP dear friend.

The life he lived is the definition of service; service to his country, his community, and his family. Another member of the greatest generation has passed. You will be missed but we are all much better off because of the life you lived.

Willard was one of the pillars of the Dover community, touching the lives of many. He was a wonderful role model for his family and all of us who had the privilege to know him. My sympathy to his family and other friends. As his life is celebrated, may his memory sustain us all.

Sending since condolences from the Mac Naughten Family

Willard was a fantastic boss. I really enjoyed working for and with him at Picatinny Arsenal.
