Wilbert grew up in Maywood, Illinois, where he was an alumni of Irving Elementary School and Proviso East High School. He was a big sports fan and could always be found rooting for his Chicago Bears and Chicago Bulls teams.

Curry and brother Bryant (Rose) Monday; nieces Karla Long, Lisa (Eric) Givan, Linda Donald, Jennifer (Tony) Lewis and nephews Michael Gordon, Bryant Monday Jr., and Anthony Monday and a host cousins and friends. Wilbert was preceded in death by his wife Stephanie Pollard; son Marquese Cannon; parents Wilbert (the late Gladys) and Mattie Lou Pollard; sisters Artie Long and Linda McKinney and brother Jerome Pollard. 

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

-St. John 14:1-3:KJV
