This was a wonderful,Old Cornelius Man. So sorry for your loss . Will be thinking of all of you. RIP.
Mr. Washam, as I called him, being a teenage friend to Susan, was such a kind man and always made me feel at home and part of the family. He and Mrs. Washam were so kind and I loved going to their house during high school. Over the years my mother and dad would run into them out and about and ask about me. He and Mrs. Washam were such saints and I know he will be missed terribly. I will be thinking of you all during this time.

"Jub" was a wonderful uncle and wonderful person! Like his other siblings; he was a gentle soul and always there with a kind word for all of his many nephews and nieces.
I am blessed to have grown up in this "Washam Family" and will always remember all the fond memories of visiting the "country" as a child. My children have fond memories of the annual Washam family reunion at his house. They enjoyed the barn and rides on his tractor. My thoughts and prayers are with all his family. I know, today he is having another family reunion with his brothers and sisters, along with his mom and dad in heaven. God Bless you JW!
Rest In Peace my friend.
You were a real man!
