Wilton will be missed at work and we will miss his "barking" at the lobo games. Our prayers are with his family and those close to him. He will be missed by all !!!

I will miss seeing Mr Jones at work and at the football games. The LOBO football game will never be the same without hearing him bark and growl! We all loved that. ANd, at Eastman, he always was the nicest man towards me and always asked about my son and how 'the family' was doing. He is going to be missed so much. Please know that all of you are in mine and my families thoughts and prayers.
