    Will was a kind and generous man with a good sense of humor. He loved his wife and children a great deal. He loved coaching his kids and teams, and enjoyed when his work threw a puzzle at him that he inevitably solved. I will miss him greatly. I mourn your loss and wish you comfort. On him there shall be peace.
