Was so sad to hear of cousin Wick's death. He was one of my very favorite cousins that visited us in Colcord, OK, back in the late 1960's. We loved having him in our home. He and my brother, David, loved hunting, swimming and fishing together and spending much of their summers together while growing up. We will certainly keep your family in our prayers.
