To the Willard family, you have deepest sympathies. I know that I was just the cleaning lady, but I still miss going to the house to clean and talk while we played cribbage. That was my highlight of every Wednesday, was to clean the house and play cribbage. I hope Wes will find a new cribbage partner.

Wes will be missed. I worked with Wes at Cobalt Public School. Take care.

Deepest sympathy to the Family. You may have lost the physical Brother but he will always be with you. An image or phrase or story will instantly bring him back to you. Cherish the times you had together and remain close to each other, as he would have wished. Thoughts and prayers are with you.

I was secretary at Cobalt Public School during the years Wes taught there. He was well respected by teachers and students alike.

Rest in Peace Wes.
