Sweet Willie Lee...You were my best friend when we lived in Forest Hill and I never will forget you. You were like another grandmother to my kids and we all have loved you ever since. We will miss you very much. Some day we will get to be with you and Fuzzy again, but for now we must say goodbye and we love you. I know Cheryl and David will miss you too, but they too will get to see you again someday. Say Hi to Fuzzy for us. All our love...
