It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our beloved former employee, Collin Kimball. Collin passed away earlier this week at the young age of twenty-five, after a courageous struggle with cancer. A truly extraordinary employee, family member, and friend, Collin was loved by coworkers and customers alike. As one of Wi******er’s finest, he was also a legacy employee and a dedicated hard worker, following in the footsteps of his great, great grandfather, who founded G.R. Nowell & Son, Inc. He worked with us during the summers and vacations throughout high school and college before embarking on his professional career. It was an honor and privilege watching him grow into a confident young man. He was brave, selfless and he will be deeply missed. We send our condolences and prayers to the entire Kimball family. Sleep well, Collin. We love you.
