Mike and Sonja so sorry hearing about your Dads passing. I know you will miss him very much. God love and keep you in the palm of his hand.
I worked with Wilburn and always saw goodness in him, he was so willing to help me with a smile. Mike ,Sheila and Sonja, Jerry and family Cherish your good memories of Wilburn as I am sure there are many.
Always a fine Christian gentleman - he will be missed.
Uncle Wilburn was my mentor. He helped get me hired on at Petit Jean Electric Cooperative Corporation after I graduated from high school. I got to work with his crew for a few years and learned the ropes. If I could use one word to sum up his life, it would be "faithful". I'm sure he heard those welcome words, "well done thou true and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of the Lord".
So sorry to hear of Wilburn's passing.
He was a nice friendly man I’ve know him a long time he will be missed prayers
Wilburn and Macie were the best of Banner Mtn. Their ministry and service will be missed greatly, and we trust others will step up and take their place in our neighborhood and community. They were faithful servants in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. May God bless the family.
Will burn will me missed. A good friend and neighbor. He is in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely Norm
