Wilbur was one of the good ones, that's for sure. Being soft spoken and laid back made him so easy to be around. I loved his take on anything we ever talked about.........and his laugh which would punctuate his words. It has been a pleasure to be his friend for these last 12 years. Thank-you Wilbur!
