Our love, thoughts and prayers are with this family during this time of loss. We have such wonderful memories of Will and Mary. Will led me to the Lord in March, 1980 and was such an inspiration to my family with precious memories of Junior Church while at SBT. Thank you Will for your love as a treasured friend.
