Not sure what to say?

I was a fellow birdwatcher. I remember Will as knowledgable and always upbeat and fun. I will miss you, Will. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Deborah, and your family.

Deborah and family, our heartfelt sympathy to each of you. Gloria Gay Cherry

Dr.Coggins was a mentor to me and a true friend of rural health. I will certainly miss him.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Wil was one of my mentors on the Cannabis project in Costa Rica. He kindly encouraged me despite my not being a physician (that never was an issue with him) and I valued his counsel. I'll miss him.

Dear Pam,
I am so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I believe I met him a few times during the PKY days and he was always very gracious. Again, accept my condolences.

Dr. Coggins was a fine gentleman who helped me with research when I was in medical school. I remember him fondly.
