Will Anthony Border

Will Anthony Border October 11, 1963 – November 27, 2017 Will Anthony Border, 54, a sixth-generation Texan from Wharton, Texas went to be with the Lord on November 27, 2017. Will was a loving father, son, brother, and uncle who will be deeply missed by the many people he touched in his life. He was a very proud father and deeply loved the time and conversations he had with his children Kasi and Patrick Border. Will enjoyed fishing and could be seen throughout the area of Wharton County fishing a pond, creek, or river with the expectation of hearing a great fishing story from him. So, we will just say he has “Gone Fishing” and we will be reunited with him in Heaven and look forward to hearing his many fishing stories when we arrive! Will was preceded in death by his wife Donna Border, father William Alexander Border, Jr., grandfather and grandmother, William Alexander Border Sr. and Lucille “Luddy” Goodlett Border, grandfather and grandmother; Joseph Huggins Sr. and Francis Zernicek Huggins. Will is survived by his children Kasi Border and her mother Jennifer Frankum Border, Patrick Border and his mother Angie Leverich Cook, Will’s mother Georgie Huggins Gibbs and his brother Clay C. Border, his nephew Cameron C. Border, and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Will, you will be in our thoughts daily, as we all think of your loving heart, your infectious smile, and humorous stories. Eternal Peace is with you, and please save some fish for the rest of us when we are finally re-united with you. We love you and we will miss you deeply.
