Losing the fingers off his left hand in a hunting accident at age 9. At age 20 losing his first child Karen at birth. When he was 29, his wife Cleta began a long journey of illness. Despite the many hardships he kept his Faith and worked hard to provide for his family and help others. He never talked religion or politics-he lived his beliefs by his Faith in Action - Treating others with Respect and Helping others. He really enjoyed his years in law enforcement. He was always amazed at how many thanked him for treating them with Respect in every type of situation. His Faith in action again. He enjoyed fishing with his family and would always get up early to prepare everything they would need. He was preceded in death by Karen Willborg (infant daughter), his parents, Winford and Nell Willborg, the Love of his life, Cleta Willborg, his wife of 63 years and his sisters, Irene King and Joy Willborg.

His message -by example not words- to his family would be to have great Faith in God and treat others with Respect and Kindness as he did his entire life. In his last months at Peachtree Assisted Living even though he needed help in every way - he always thanked each one for every task they did for him and treated them with Respect and Kindness. His message to his family is God First, Treat others well and life is not about you. His family wants to thank his caregivers Ralph, Melanie Emily and Jackie while at home and all the staff at Peachtree Assisted Living and Elite Hospice for the love and his excellent care.
