Carl was a heck of a guy. Though I have not seen him in a while, he will always be someone I think a lot of and respect. His work with the Rotary club was important and meaningful. Linda and I have the family in our thoughts and prayers.
So sorry to hear this. He will be missed in the church and community. Thinking of all the family.
Thinking of all his family. Wilbur served in the army, in the church and in the community. He will be missed.
Please except my condolences. May you find comfort in knowing that your dear one is safe in the memory of God, who will remember every detail about him and bring him back again. John 5:28, 29 gives this assurance.
Sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Joye. Your family have my heart felt condolences. May God comfort you in your time of sorrow.
Joye and Hinson Families, may your many family memories bring you comfort to share with each other during this special time. May your also have the peace and comfort offered by our Heavenly Father Jehovah as promised by his son and our savior, Jesus Christ.
Carl was a person that I respected very much. His work for his Lord at Williamsburg Presbyterian Church by serving others will be immensely missed. The Kingstree community has been touched by a person that loved his community by his many civic activities. When he saw people that were “down and out” he reached out to help them up. I pray God’s comfort for all or his family and to cherish the legacy and memories of Carl Wilbur. God used Carl Wilbur in many ways and we were touched by his kind actions and words.
So sorry to hear about this. No one called me. I will be praying for all of you. Love to all.
