I'm sad to hear of Wilbur's passing. In my early days, he was my barber. I knew him later from his construction work and other business endeavors. He was always helpful and good company. He will be missed.

Good memories of my Dad taking me to the barber shop when I was a little guy and getting a haircut from Wilbur, Brownie or Phil. Then heading next door far a donut at Jacks donuts.
