Uncle Wilbert
We will miss you.
The one who always had a joke or two
And when he told his stories
You knew they were all true
He´d make us all laugh with his antics
He never took himself too seriously, but always took us seriously.

Mrs. Alcunia, Cardice and Candice sending you my love and prays.

"So it´s true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love." - E.A. Bucchianeri

Grief can be so hard, but our memories help us cope. I will always remember his name for me,
Ms. Beasley. Tears are okay, but remember him with smiles and laughs.

Sympathy to the Gray family, Ms Alcunia, Cardice, Candice! My fondest memory of 'Wilbert' was of course at Devall Middle School. He was the funniest, kind person, always a joy to talk with and be around. Cherish the memories! Love on your Mom! May God continue to bless you!
