Eunice and Family,
We offer our sincere condolences at the passing of Wiley. We had not seen him in years, but had good memories of the days and times in East End.
We remember that smile on his face and his fun loving ways.
May you all be comforted in the days and times to come. Your loss will naturally bring emotional pain for some time. But, the days of sweet memories will come to you in time also.
Be encouraged and blessed.

Eula Davis, Pittman
