Not sure what to say?

I have known Will's parents for over 40 years, Will and his brothers since they were little guys, have very little time knowing Allison and only know of the little ones through William and Mary over the years. I am so overwhelmed by this knowledge of Will's death that I have been so remiss in acknowledging your family grief. I could not let Christmas pass without reaching out to each and all of you and assuring you of my prayers for peaceful repose of your dear Will's soul and your consolation.

Mr. and Mrs. Durst, I was sorry to hear of your son untimely passing from Elizabeth and Sarah (previously Knight) your family will be in our prayers.

Dearest Allison-There are now words to express the shock of knowing that Will has transitioned. What a wonderful spirit he had. In the coming days, when things quiet down...know that I am available however you have need of me.

I was blessed to know Will from grade school. We met at church & schooled together at COKSM all the way through BE. His wonderful & thoughtful character was solid from the time he was a young boy. I only have fond memories of the kind hearted person he was. When my Grandpa was near the end of his life, his favorite thing was to go to Publix and see his friends who worked there. Will was always so gracious and loving towards him, generous with hugs & kind words of support. The world will not...

I had the pleasure of working with Will as soon as he walked in to the room he was a ray of sunshine he just had away of making you smile no matter how bad you were feeling you will be missed

I can’t imagine what y’all are going through. I’m sorry I never got to meet Will. I understand he was a wonderful person, husband and father. My thoughts and prayers are with you all

We are so sorry to hear the tragic loss of your husband William we pray for you and your children for healing and peace. I believe without a doubt he is with you in a very spiritual way now my God grant you peace and love. May God bless you all.

Our heartfelt condolences and prayers to Allison and her Children. It is indeed a devastating loss and will be very difficult for the children to recover from the loss of their father. Again, our heartfelt sympathies to the grieving family.
