My Friends Patty and Family, I'm so sorry for you and Will's sweet young family. . . and for all Will's friends and coworkers. How he will be missed. My memory of Will is an outdoor-loving high school guy with a shy-ish, sweet smile . . . a guy putting in many hours in the water with the Coast Guard team and on your little sailboat off your back yard. I love hearing that in subsequent years he was investing in wildlife and waterfront preservation. So VonOhlen! My prayers are with you...
