Mr. Henry and Mrs. Frances, Michelle, and Joslyn, I was so very saddened to hear about Will - I couldn't believe it, honestly. So many of my classmates and I have wonderful memories of fun times that we shared with Will - you do too and I pray that these are a comfort to you at this time. I cannot imagine the sense of loss that you are feeling but want you to know that we are all mourning with you and praying for you. My family and I send along our most heartfelt condolences.
