Always the 'cool' guy. Great family man with values. Enjoyed the rides back to MSU. Created a great man in Erik.

I'm gonna miss Will's emails keeping me informed on Pro-Life articles in the news. 
 He was a truly holy and gracious man. 
 Those souls of the little ones he untiringly prayed for were surely there to greet him in heaven.
 Jen and children, we pray that the memories you made with Will will be your consolation in the future. May God give you peace and assurance that you will see Will again in heaven.

I know there are few words that can provide comfort to family at this difficult time. In time, the fond memories of Will will turn the tears of sorrow to tears of joy. I worked with Will for only a short time, but it was clear to me that Will was a man of principle and passion - he truly cared about people. As a professional he touched so many people in a positive way and for that his family can be proud. May God Bless you and provide comfort at this extraordinary time.

I am sitting here trying to think of the right words and they do not come. So I will speak from my heart. Will and Jennifer were a perfect match and both were so kind to each other. I never heard a harsh word said between them. They shared the same interest, both loved people and just made the world a better place. 
 Will was a very devout Catholic, attending church every morning. He put his faith into action always being kind to people and helping others.
 It is hard to understand why God took Will but one thing for sure, he was spiritually prepared to meet his Lord. I like to think of it as God looked down on earth that day and wanted to pick the most perfect flower for His bouquet, and he chose Will. I know that Will is safe and content in the Glory of God's company. My heart aches for Jennifer and I hope the many prayers she is receiving will help to comfort her through this sad loss. My prayers also go out to the family.

To Uncle Will's family: My thoughts and prayers have been with you all. I know you have each other at this terrible time and for that i am grateful. Uncle Will was a friendly, wonderful man who helped the Sass family thru their own tragic pain. He was always a solid man of Grace for Kaitlyn and Hannah to lean on. He was loved. Thank you God for Uncle Will- he will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have had the pleasure of working with Will thru our medical practice and have had many conversations about politics and religion during our lunches. I'm greatly sorry for your loss. He always spoke highly of his wife, family, and church. He will be greatly missed. Annette Helmel, Pulmonary Services

Dear Jennifer and Family,
 What a terrible loss to you and the world. I know of very few people who are as "right with God" as Will was. There is no doubt in my mind that he is with Our Lord. He was one of the most joyful, playful, educated, committed to family, friends, community, and God, loving, fun, and trustworthy persons I have ever been blessed to call friend.
 I will never forget his support and the wisdom he shared with me as I struggled through trying times...or how he played with my daughter, Kelsey, as a toddler and took the time to encourage her as she grew. He always made it a point to talk to her. What a great role model!
 May the Lord comfort you and all of the rest of us who loved him so dearly and help us remember the laughter and hugs he shared with us before he was called home. I suspect he will talk our Lord's ear off to intervene on our behalf throughout eternity while stirring things up with his good friend and partner in crime, Mikey.
 Sincerely and with sympathy, Dr. Michelle

Dear Jennifer and family,
 My heart goes out to you. I played hockey with Will for a number of years and will truly miss him. He was always a joy to be around.

I would like to have been there with you all this time. The beautiful pictures in the memory book share his love for family with us. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Jennifer and Family, My heart goes out to all of during this time. My prayers are to God to comfort you. Jennifer, you and Will were so helpful facilitating the "Divorice Group". Your caring, sharing and acceptance was a comfort to me and I'm sure all others. God Bless
