Debbie and Wren, may God give you peace and great strength for the days a head. Will was special to our family, a big brother to Kaden, and a best friend to Kory. I will hold dear the last time he was over and how much he made us laugh. We will always feel blessed to have been a part of his life. If ever you need anything just call. Thank you for allowing Kory to honor your family and Will by being a pallbearer. Kory and our family will forever hold his memories close to our hearts. We know we will see him again when God calls us home. Much love to all of you.

Debbie & Wren -- I understand your pain. We who have buried our children ahead of you would never wish such pain on any other parents. Hold close your memories, they will comfort you. I want to come visit you, Debbie. I know how Will is the center of your Universe. Such a handsome, awesome son. The Lord loans us these beautiful children and trusts us to love & care for them till he calls them Home. Please trust that He needed your Will in Heaven. He must have needed Will so much, to bring him Home @ such a young age. I hope you can find some peace in knowing that God chose you to be Will's parents for the time he was here. He trusted you to teach him well and learn the lessons Will was sent to teach you and all who knew him, especially those who loved him so dearly. Debbie, my heart is always open if you want to share about your Will. I've lost your # from my phone but please call me anytime if you need to talk. 903-277-3970. I love you and my heart aches that your family now has Will-shaped holes in your hearts.

Mom

My son was the most wonderful human being ever in my life. He was on an intellectual level that even his own Mother cannot adequately describe. He was so bright and special that this present world was not enough to keep such a spirit. He is now where he rightfully belongs and as his Mother, I will spend the rest of my days creating awareness and being proactive in honoring my son's death and memory. I love you, Will!

April 29, 2014

Debbie I am so sorry, but I know there r no words to express how u feel as a mother!! I know I would b devastated if it were one of my daughters!! Remember all the conversations we would have about Will and my daughter, Brittany Jones. Brittany told me she saw Will last weekend when she came home from HSU @ a gas station and she said they had a nice conversation! I am so glad to have known Will and my daughter knowing him and graduating with him!! All MY LOVE and God Bless U and ur family!!!

April 29, 2014

Will was always so spirited in school and I am constantly sharing stories about him even now in college. Probably my favorite is the time in junior high when he swallowed that frog liver for a dollar. I couldn't believe he did it, but Will had a way of doing what he made his mind up to do. He has given us many great memories and he is greatly missed. Your family will remain in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

April 29, 2014

I knew Will from school and I am heartbroken for your family. Y'all will be in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

Debbie and Wren, words cannot express the sorrow I feel in my heart for the two of you and the rest of your family. I can only say he was greeted at the gates of Heaven by Angels that will show him his way. May the Good Lord bless all of you give each and every one the strength and comfort to make it through very trying time.

Connie Green Brian

Debbie, Wren, and family,
I was at a loss for words to express my condolences to you until I read these words. "When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight." Surely no child was ever cherished more than you cherished Will. May he continue to be your delight now and forever more. You will remain in my thoughts and prayers.

Debbie and Wren...there are no words I can give you to express the depth of sorrow I feel in my heart and spirit. I can not even remotely fathom your pain. Will clearly displayed all the traits of a wonderful son, and a fine young man. I have spent much time on my knees in prayer for your family since I heard the tragic news. I have no magic words, but pray in the Spirit, the Lord will somehow comfort you all...He promises to never leave us, nor forsake us. He is with you. If you need anything, or just want to talk...I am here for you. Love to you all.
