We are sad to announce that on September 4, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Willard Mikkelson of Channahon, Illinois. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Willard Mikkelson to show support.

In the quiet moments of reflection, amidst the gentle rustle of leaves and the whispered song of the stars, we shall carry Willard's memory with us, a guiding light illuminating the path ahead. May Willard's journey be filled with peace and serenity, and may he find rest in the embrace of eternity.
