My condolences to the Washington Family. Wilbert Washington was a very dear friend. It didn't matter how long it was between conversations, it was always like it was just yesterday. His smile and that look he always gave will be etched in my heart. He and I spoke a couple weeks ago and we were planning to hang out during the holidays. Unfortunately, God had better plans for my friend. Sleep well my friend. We will see each other again.

Expressing my deepest sympathy to the family of Wilbert Washington. I had the opportunity of working with him at the Leon Co Regional Juvenile Detention Center while attending FAMU; it was there that we developed a great friendship. He truly was a great person that I was proud to say was a friend. May God provide strength and comfort.
