I will surly miss Will's smiling face and funny talk,and our talks about how to make NSRA and the world in general a better place, it still bring tears to my eyes when I relize that God called him to spread happiness for him, and that he won't be here doing the same. My prayers for you will continue forever because you and Will are friends

Annette;
Needless to say my thoughts and prayers have been with you and Will for a long time. You two were a great team, and super friends for many, many years. I always looked forward to seeing you guys at the nationals. When I moved here, I was so looking forward to taking our friendship to a higher level, and I did, somewhat. I'll miss seeing him at the shows and cruise ins, but rest assured, he's already organizing shows up in Heaven, and being reunited with our fallen street...

Dear Annette, Will was one of my best childhood friends all the kids in our neighborhood were so close,he was so kind, then he grew into a wonderful man and William met him in the fire department and they became friends, so he was a wonderful friend to us not be mention a great neighbor. I know you will miss him but just think what he and Mott and Jesus is doing. Don't you know that was a wonderful meeting. Try to stay strong, you had a great man that loved you...

Hey Annette,

My fondest memories of Will were his bright and friendly smile, and the pleasant words he would have to share with everyone. He could lighten the air on the unit sometimes, just by his presence alone. I was honored to have known him, and my only regret is that I didn't get to know him better. He was a truly blessed man and you were blessed to have had him, as were we all that were able to know him. But now, somewhere he's still smiling, his kind words are echoing,...

Dear Annette,
my thoughts and prayers are with you, and always remember with Gods love you will always be ok, love you, Donna Daniel/anmed

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

I worked with Will for a short period of time, but it didn't take a long time to know that Will was truly a blessed person.
