God called a GOD loving, inspiring, motivating man home this past week. Mr. Willoughby took on God's mission in every aspect of his life. I thank GOD for bringing Mr. and Mrs. Willoughby into my life. They provided continuous words of encouragement and ways we all could inspire others to trust God to guide our pathway. So bless to be called a friend and sister in Christ to both of them.

Mr. Willoughby will always hold a part of my heart. His gentle, unselfish soul is now resting in peace. I am sad we will no longer see him on this earth, but know we shall meet again. Oh the celebration he is experiencing now!
