Willard loved his family with passion. He knew many people and had time to talk to all of them. He loved to help people. He loved hard work. He loved inventing things to use with his tractor. He lived in Swift Current and had a one acre garden, but he was a big farmer at heart. His pride and joy of his garden was planting potatoes. Lots and lots of potatoes.
Willard's last three years of his life were filled with pain and sickness. He faced every one of those days with bravery and strength. He was able to die at home in bed peacefully. That was his final wish.
Warren's Funeral Home were entrusted with the arrangements. For further information call 306-773-8831 or 1-800-267-6606 or visit our website at www.warrensfuneralhome.com and express your sympathy to family members in our book of condolences.
