Mr. Wilson was always encouraging me to stay focus on earning a degree and not to count on my smartness that it could run out if the company ask for a degree. I know that he was a great teacher and a father image to me when my dad was away fighting overseas from time to time. I believed that Mr. Wilson was one of the greatest and strongest Black man that I have ever knew. He was a role model to many young black men. He'll be truly missed.
