Willie Spicknall
1954 - 2022
This quote best describes Willie.
“To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
And the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by
a healthy child, a garden patch or
a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier
Because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Though Willie left us suddenly, he left a huge impact on his family, friends, and community. Not only with his love for farming but with his kind heart, whit, and thirst for knowledge. When he wasn’t farming or deer hunting he was enjoying vacation with a miller lite at Sloppy Joe’s or Hogs Breath. You are loved and missed, especially for this march we do in memory of you, instead of with you.
