We were sorry to hear of Wilbur's passing while we were out of town. Our deepest sympathy goes out to the Jankowski family and know they will find solace in knowing that Wilbur is at peace now and his pain and suffering is over. We commend his sons Martin and Richard and their spouses for all the love and attention they gave their Father during his difficult time. The trip to Sparta, Wisconsin was such a wonderful thing for them to do and I am sure pleased Wilbur immensely. We will keep Wilbur and his late beloved wife Lorraine and the Jankowski family in our prayers.

Dad has been through so much this past year. Between losing his wife as well as all his health problems he did his best to face it with strength. It was nice that he was able to visit the place he held so dear in his heart (Sparta, Wisconsin) one last time because of Rich and Marty. He got to visit with the wonderful family and friends he has out there. It was good to see him smiling in the pictures. We will miss him greatly but we know he is not suffering and is dancing in Heaven with Mom and Cheri.
