Anyone who knew Will before his accident can tell you he was everything that you admired in a person. Hard-working, fun-loving, a loyal son, a devoted husband and father. His accident may have changed his ability to to express these qualities, but they were always there. He was a sweet, sweet person. I am glad that his physical trials are finally over and have been replaced by unsurpassing joy.
I send my thoughts and prayers to Sandra and the whole family. God bless each of you for your faithfulness to Will.
