After spending a couple months getting to know Mr. Wilkinson, automatically his passion for continuing to learn new things and transform people's lives became so apparent to me. He will truly be missed. Mr. Wilkinson was a kind and loving man and I am so happy that he can finally rest easy with his wife, whom he talked about every single day. Coach Joe, you have inspired me to be a better person. I will always treasure you, dear friend. It's not goodbye, it's see you later! I promise I will have read your awesome book by the time I see you again!
