Not sure what to say?

Dear Mrs. Besant and Family:
I was saddened and surprised to receive the news about Mr. B.. A special man with a smile on this face all the time. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Death ends a life-not a relationship.

I am sure I am only one of many whose life at Arthur Andersen was touched by Wilson. I have never forgotten his mentoring and that great smile and twinkle in his eye.

Dear Barbara: As the retirement years roll along I always enjoyed visiting with Wilson at AA luncheons and in Florida.Wilson was a wonderful collegue and an outstanding Partner. He was creative and always a gentlemen in providing imaginative client service.I always learned from Wilson and will miss his warm welcome. May God bless you as you adjust to his passing.
