We were shocked to hear of Will's passing. Our sympathy goes out to the family. Will was always good to us, not only as an employee, but better yet as a loyal friend. No matter how hot it was he wanted to finish that next round, cause it needed to be done. Will was always very considerate and respectful and compassionate to everything around him, whether it was the pets or watering the garden when we had to be gone. I never heard a complaint without following it with a compliment for a critter or even a piece of machinery.
We're going to miss him, but he is now without pain or troubles. ~ Buster & Nancy Peterson Kadoka (12/7/2006) -
