Now with all the official information out of the way I want to tell you who Will was.
He was a very good child who tried not to make waves. He always did what he was asked to do and tried to help out in any way he could.
As he grew older he became a prankster and a joker. We laughed often together. He never met anyone who didn't like him and he was considered a friend by many.
He loved chlidren and loved being a Daddy. Damien was his whole world.
He was kind hearted which made it easy for others to take advantage of him, but no matter what another person did, he always forgave them and moved on.
He was a very good person and is truely missed by anyone who ever knew him.
