Wendall known by friends as Tiny was a man that was truly gifted there was never a man I can say excelled in everything he did, from his proffessional work ethic to perfecting the best dear recipes. Everyone loved his Jerky and chilly. If i ever needed something built he would engineer it better than I could have imagined. He was a strong and gentle person sometimes misunderstood often stubborn but with reason but always fair. I worked with Tiny for many years and am proud to have called him my friend. I was saddened to find out the news two days to late and want his family to know how sorry I am for the loss of a man whom I will never forget. R.I.P
