Family.. Many have asked that we put our family name or former family name/maiden name, grandparents name (the name that links you to the Wilks/Willis family) and where we're from, somewhere briefly in our Guest Book entry as well. EX: Susie Wilks-Ward (NY). |

Hello Family, I have some very bad news to report as we understand it. But to God it is much different, for He rejoice when His own return back to Him. Therefore, let us also rejoice in the Lord that early this morning Aunt Annie Mae slept away in peace with the Lord. The arrangements are not final at this time, however, she will be placed next to her husband in Ala. Love you and let us pray for this family. We know that she will be in our hearts forever. Ben |

| Thank God for this family and every friend of this blessed group of God's children. This is a reminder to all to please support Pat by sending your monies into her, now! In the event you have not had the opportunity to host a family reunion it is almost impossible to get anything done without money. There has to be money up front before these business will reserve their facilities for our use. If you can't send it all, help us by sending what you can today. Thank you, love you and may the grace of our Lord and savior shine His light upon you and yours (family). Your President-Ben | |||

| As I review our website, it gives me cause to appreiciate where our family has come from until the present. From traveling through the south with the white only signs to sharing information via the internet. I can truely say we of this generatikon are trulely blessed for the struggles our family endured to get us here. Let's continue the struggle so that 100 years from now whatever means of communication is being used, our family will be there to partake of! I love you all!!!! | |||
