Bill DeKlavon.
I have been privileged to know many awesome people in my life. I have also been privileged to be related to many of those people and those I was not related to, when I could, I adopted informally. My uncle, Bill DeKlavon is one of those great men. He taught me the love of a heavenly Father. He taught me what it meant to be a man in search of the closest relationship with Jesus. He also taught me that if I don’t meet a character every day, then I should be the character for others. I may have overdone on that last one. My uncle writes and occasionally, he has fragments that don’t fit anywhere in particular. I am privileged to have one of these vignettes given into my care and I’m sharing it with you now.
