I will always remember Cousin Wilbert's love for His family and His pride for our accomplishments. He was such a great role model for us all to follow. He lead with patience, self control and a dazzling contagious smile. Let us ALL thank God in our remeberance of Him. And may the peace and comfort of The Savior be present in the lives of His wife, and His family.
