May we extend our deepest sympathy and love to the Willis Family, Hidegard and Melba from the Ribas in Ludington, Mi

Willy was a good friend when he worked for us in the early 50's at our poultry ranch. I knew most all of the family, his parents, thru Shamrock Dairy and Wesley, thru racing. I believe he also belonged to the Arizona Flyers flying club which I belonged to. Although we lost track of each other, I am sure he had the same pleasant personality that he had back then. Our prayers are with the family.

WITH SYMPATHY AND LOVE FROM YOUR COUSIN

Dear Melba, Jack, and Family of Willis. We have not seen you in a hundred years (it seems), but please know that our prayers are with you during this time.

Carl, Jr. and Frances Witcher
