    Know that my Willman family is in my thoughts and prayers. Though I didn’t get to see Uncle Clarence as much as I wanted he was near and dear to my heart. Will always remember the times we did get to visit him. Especially when he stood in for my Dad ( his brother) and gave me away at my wedding. Will lift a glass of Wisconsin beer in his memory on Sunday and truly wish I could be there with you all, but know that I am in spirit. He is free and happy with all the loved ones who passed before him. Love ya all
