Condolences to the family. David attended school at Booker T. Washington with my husband, David who has also passed on. We would see Wilmer after church...and they would talk about the Saints, laugh and share old memories. Everyone knew Wilmer. His tall stature, smile and clean dresser. He will truly be missed. To the family, be strong and focus on the good times you shared. My prayers will be with all of you.

My condolences and prayers to the Gray family. Wilmer was one of our most consistent students in Sunday School. He knew the word and he loved the Lord.
May the peace of God comfort you during this time.

But in time,
The blessings of God's unfailing grace will soften the hurt you are feeling and bring your heart the peace, comfort, and hope that it needs to heal.
Until then please remember there's a circle of friends surrounding you who are embracing you and lifting the family in prayer.
