Wendell Williams
Our neighbor and friend Wendell Williams pass away yesterday. He will be missed by many, and very, very missed by our family. Wendell was someone who was often the first to know about our next "great" farm plan, and yet as unconventional and probably crazy as our plans may have seemed to him, he was always supportive and seemed to enjoy the uniqueness of our plans. He did our custom planting and harvesting, and could be counted on to have a solution to the crazy conditions and timing that made even us cringe. Green alfalfa in the beans at harvest? Not a problem, he just said he took a nice cutting of hay with the beans. Small and misshaped fields? That was okay too - he made it workout. We really enjoyed his visits and I will forever remember and miss the sound of the kids yelling "Wendell's here!" whenever he stopped by. I enjoyed working with him and knowing him. He was a good man and our family was very blessed to have known him.

He sang "The Old Rugged Cross" at my dad's funeral. He will be missed indeed.
