Willow Tree a shining example of what is good in Liberal

LETTER TO THE EDITOR, Tyler, Jeni and Kevin Prater, Liberal

I have made many great memories at this course, and I continue to do so today. It’s the one place, more than any other outside of my church and home, where I enjoy special time with my wife and son, other family members, and many friends.
