21982 Sherman Anson Willson of Lexington Michigan, marked his 100th birthday on November 18, 2008 with a fortnight of celebrations with friends, family & church family. Letters, Acknowledgements & accolades in his honor came from all over; the United States President /Dept. Defense, the Governor of Michigan, Rep. John Espinoza, Wayne State University & The Free Masons. Even Birchwood Mall where he walks daily & the Tim Hortons where he frequents held special celebrations.
Sherman was born in Detroit in a house that still serves as offices for Wayne State University. Not only was Sherman born there but he was educated at Wayne State & even became a professor & administrator at Wayne State, a career that lasted 39 years.
As a professor Sherman taught English, Speech, Drama& Photography. His work in photography lead to a commission in the US Navy during WWII where he produced 33 training films. These films reduced training time for recruits from 15 weeks to just 6 days! Sherman’s service merited a certificate honoring him a life long title of Lt. Commander, Retired.
Sherman is an avid lover of art, music, reading, travel & people. The travels themselves total 29 times to Europe incorporating the pursuit of his love of art & music.
Fate played an unusual part recently when Sherman was in the hospital for a short stay. It turned out that his room mate was the grandfather of Caroline Goulding a 16 year old renowned violinist from Marysville, Michigan. Caroline would visit her grandfather to play for him on many occasions which also was enjoyed by Sherman. During his stay Sherman got to know Caroline & her family. As fate would have it Caroline was going to be playing in Lexington during the Bach Festival in the fall & Sherman was able to enjoy her playing there as well.
Sherman is still active in his church as a Scripture Reader & he participates in Bible, Book & other discussion groups. His experience & insights always add to any conversation. Sherman is still physically active & walks daily at the mall. His longevity & good health are an inspiration to all he meets & he enjoys people & often says, “People are more fun than any thing."

21983 Sherman Anson Willson.Sernior is the son of Anson Abram Willson & Sarah ALICE HILL.

Abstract from Interview with his son Anson Willson Junior:
My father (Sherman Anson Senior) played 36 holes of golf Sunday afternoon, went to bed & woke up & died while shaving Sunday morning.
My father was the healthiest man I ever knew, except that nobody knew how to count calories & nobody knew what the dangers of overweight were, & so my wonderful father thought he could eat all he wanted to, & he did. So did I. But I was young enough so that I didnʼt develop the big belly that he did, & the weight killed him. He played 36 holes of golf on Sunday, got up & shaved Monday, & dropped dead. He was 56 years old. I was very young, in my 20s. He dropped dead & nobody knew why. Everything he did, I had to do with him. We both were golf & tennis champions. He had a huge library in his home. He designed his home just the way he wanted it. The library was filled with books & I had read everyone of them. …
My father was a Mason. I appreciated dad so much so I was enthusiastic when I joined. My mother was a bit against my joining because she had heard all these wild stories about how they beat each other up, & things of that kind, so it all worked & I jumped into Masonry with dad being right there. From then on we went to Lodge together. It wasnʼt too long after that that he died. I donʼt remember the Masonic funeral. I sometimes wonder what happened to me. I was too upset. …

My father & his 3 brothers were Masons. Shermanʼs father & grandfather were Masons.
