I have not wanted to visit this site because then it would real. It was beyond devastating when Louise told me of Wyatt´s passing. Louise has been a friend for over 50+ years. We grew up, got married, had our children, got divorced and even lived together in Sedona with our children. I have seen Wyatt grow up, get married and have his own children. He has always been a wonderful person, even as a boy. I am so sorry for your loss. My heart, thoughts and prayers are with Louise, Betsy, Wyatt Jr and Wade and extended family. May memories of Wyatt comfort you during this extremely difficult time. God Bless you all. With so much love, Sheila Waldrip

My condolences to Wyatt's family. I remember how proud his grandparents were when he went off to college to become an engineer. I see he followed his father as being an outdoorsman. May he rest in peace.

I am so deeply saddened to hear about Wyatt’s passing. I personally remember our short time with Wyatt, Luke, my brothers Tommy and David, along with our moms, all living together in Sedona. Going to the creek to fish or swim, hiking in the red dirt, riding bikes throughout the neighborhood, just living our best lives. It was a wonderful time to grow up in Sedona. I pray for Wyatt’s boys, Betsy, Louise and Luke, as well as his extended family to always feel his love and peace surrounding you and loving you. God Bless~
