William was a kind, gentle, loving, good, family loving, God loving young man. He did what most of us did at his young age when we thought we were invincible and we took many chances with no worries of risk at all. But, there was no vehicle that crossed our path. We were lucky. William was not. There is no consolation for William's family. The loss of William is a horrific tragedy, one that will never be forgotten. William will be so missed and his family cannot imagine life without him. Please pray for William and his family. May God bless them all.

May the outpouring of sympathy, the kind acts of friends and strangers, and the comfort in knowing that your loss is felt by many, help you get through this most difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Tom & Kim Devine

William was an amazing young man
He was a kind hearted and sweet spirit
His intelligence was very apparent from such a young age. Not just book smart
But life smart. I will miss William
And I know many others that knew and loved him will be at a great loss
The loss to his immediate family will seem unbearable. My prayers and thoughts are with you all during your time of grief. May William rest in peace in Heaven's glory

I can't express how sorry I am for your loss. Will was such a sweet boy from the first time we keep him for you. I still remember that night and how surprised you were that we took him out to eat with us. Please know that we are keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

Robert and Deborah Todd
Kim and Mark- words could will never express the pain that Deb and I feel for you; it is particularly painful that when I close my eyes I can see our 3 sons playing with William when they were younger- whether it be running around the yard or on ski slopes. Please know that Deb and I are praying for your strength- William will be missed but the special times we all shared will forever keep his memory alive.
God Bless the both of you and Leah.

Kim, Mark and Leah, it's the little things, the small, everyday occurrences that you'll remember. The laughs, the stories, the smiles. And even though it seems like you can never recover from your loss, it is these very memories that will help push the pain away and bring back your smiles. May God hold you in the palms of his hands during this time of great loss, Cathey Waters
We little knew that day
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly.
In death, we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you.
You did not go alone.
For part of us went with you.
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories.
Your love is still our guide.
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same.
But God calls us one by one.
The chain will link again.

Our hearts are broken too. Know that we hold William and all of you in light and love. We have a very sweet memory of William at 5 years of age. Our family was visiting one afternoon and our son Ethan, then 7 years old, and William played together. William was so giving, offering to share everything he had with Ethan. At one point Kim laughed and said, "At school, they call him the mayor." In the best of all meanings, William was truly that: loving, caring, and kind. We will miss the mayor, but the gifts he brought to us remain always. With love, John and Donna Hall

Monday night, July 20, 2015, we lost one of our own. Although he was only part of the NRCA Knights wrestling team for one season, Will Schweibinz will always be part of the Knights Wrestling Family. He was a Senior in our very first year as a team, with no wrestling experience but more than enough courage. A true teammate, he was always encouraging and willing to give his all. Monday, the Lord's plan required another warrior to join His team. He got a great one. Please pray for Will's family. Those of us who were fortunate enough to know Will, we are better for having done so. Will, you will be missed.

Although we did not have the privilege of meeting him, we were devastated to hear of William's death. I can't imagine how you must feel. It's a terrible thing to lose a loved one but unthinkable to lose a child. We send our thoughts, prayers, and love in the hope it may bring some comfort to know we hold you close to our hearts right now.
With our sincere condolences,

Although none of you know me, I am an elderly cousin. William's Great-Grandfather Doc McGlohon was brother to my Grandfather John Lewis McGlohon of Winterville and Ayden, North Carolina. William's Grandfather Wayland McGlohon and I graduated together from Ayden High School in 1958. Although I had never seen William, I can easily perceive in his face the fine qualities attributed to him in the obituary. I am sad to learn of his tragic death, and my sincere condolences are extended to all his family. As I look at his picture, I see a very beautiful young man, and there is a definite resemblance to my own grandson, who is just a few years younger. None of us can really understand why such tragic events take place and take loved ones from us, but the memory of a life well-lived can last forever. God bless all of you, as we resign ourselves to the perfect will of God. I grieve with Wayland and Florence over the loss of this wonderful young man. Sincerely, Noel Thomas "Tommy" Manning, San Antonio, TX and formerly of Ayden, North Carolina.

There are no words we can offer that give you comfort in dealing with the tragic loss of your son Will. While there are no words of comfort, know that as parents of three boys, along with all parents, we suffer and live with our worst internalized fears everyday as they grow more independent and learn their way in the world. While we cannot truly know your pain, we wish for God's strength and blessing on your family, as well as the strength of your own family and friends to help you in your healing.
With Deepest Sympathy,
Scott & Christa Dettman

I've never met Joseph or the Schweibinz Family, but one of my customers at Starbucks is friends with this family and her son was friends with Joseph. She came into my store yesterday, like any other day, but I could tell something was off. She shared the tragic news about William and after she left I instantly googled what I was told to find out more. It's a sad thing when a young person is taken from this world. And we all feel like we never said enough. I'm a motorcycle rider myself and I truly believe motorcyclists share an unspoken bond when we come across one another on the road. We look out for each other, regardless of knowing ones name or ones story, it's just instinct. I know there's nothing anyone can say to take this pain away from this family, but time will heal all wounds and this family is definitely in my thoughts and heavy on my heart.

I am truly shocked and heartbroken at the news of William's tragic accident. Although I did not know William, I have had the chance to know his mom, Kim, whose love for her children knows no bounds. The loss of a child is a parents worst nightmare. I pray that over time the raw edges of this pain will be smoothed and know that his memory will bring you peace, comfort and joy.
