Remembering Wilmer for me goes back goes back to the early 1950s. Wilmer was my first cousin and my first roommate; I was about four. Wilmer sure was tall. Wilmer got his first job in London so Edith & Orland decided he should board with my parents, (uncle Doug). The house was full, so Wilmer got shoehorned in with me. Lots of good memories. My condolences to Wilmer's family. Garnet
Our condolences to all the family. We were glad we had the opportunity to meet him. He always had a great story to share and contagious 'chuckle'. Thinking of you Joan Anne, Steve and Laurie. Billy and Jane from The Riverview
Slim, Joan Anne and I had a wonderful visit last fall. I feel so lucky having had the time to chat about past fun times. H will be greatly missed. Erika, Shelley, Michael, Brian, Heidi, little Erika and Nicole were so glad to have Slim and Joan Anne as friends for many years.
We feel truly blessed to have had Slim in our family for many years. He was a very careing person who listened to us with great interest, and shared his many stories with wisdom and humour. We loved our vists with our sister Joan Anne and brother-in-law Slim, and will never forget everything he meant to us. Will Miss You Slim! Love Charlie and Myrt
Dear Joan Anne, So very sorry to hear of Slim's passing, we so enjoyed his e-mails, always sending his hillarious jokes. May God Bless, Germaine & Les
