    My brother, John and I extend deep condolences to the Wilfong family. We have known Bill since we were all in elementary school and were neighbors. The Wilfongs lived across the street from us and we were all great friends. I know Bill fought a good fight and we would always ask his family members how he was doing. It is with great sadness that we are writing this condolence. please know our prayers are with you. RIP Bill
