Will,
You will forever be in our hearts. We cherish our memories of sharing life with you, Ginger, and the boys over the years....from birthday parties, watching Miami football, fishing trips, New Year's bonfires, traveling all over the place for baseball games, to our family trip to Daytona Beach where we learned that you were the best rum runner maker EVER!! You were not only the most genuine friend but you were a brother. No goodbyes...just see you later. We love you.

Ginger,
Mindi and I are out of town but wanted you to know that we are praying for you and your sons. I have good memories of the time I spent with Will both at work and outside of work. He was a good friend.
