Chuck Wilder had impact on local student

To the editor:

My best friend Chuck Wilder passed away from cancer. He was a loyal man and cared about Blytheville more than anybody that lived in Blytheville. Please stay continue.

Chuck Wilder, when he was in the hospital, I prayed for him. And guess what? He got better and he was let out of the hospital. He said to me, "Thank you, kid."

That was my favorite gift because he made people cheer up when they were down because he was really important in life. He lived a long life with cancer in him. It's just on 9/11 he passed that morning. But now he doesn't have to go through any more treatments.

I'm just telling everybody around the world, appreciate what you have because it is not going to last forever. You might not realize it now, but the people you love the most will go to heaven and you will miss them but you will be up there with them too one day.
