Janyce Westerman wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Brenda, my heart is sad, a feeling that is shared by so many of Wilbur’s devoted family and friends. He was a wonderful man—a gentle soul, an intellect, a visionary and a person who made a difference. I like to think that he and Jesse are catching up on the past several years—Jesse laughing loudly and Wilbur smiling his sweet smile, knowing that Jesse is “pulling his leg.” Wilbur will be remembered as a man who cared.”
