Dear Mary Ann Thompson Wilson And Family, Sorry For The Passing Of Your Husband Mr. Wendell Eugene Wilson. I worked with your son david wilson, at karastan rug mill for over 13 years, we had alot of good memories and times together. I miss david, wish he was still here at karastan. Whenever you loose a mother or a father you never get over the pain. It could take years and years for you to try to cope and deal with the loss of a loved one. I will be thinking of you in this difficult time. David come back and see us again when you can. With Deepest Sympathy, Jeffrey W Rakestraw
