I am so thankful to have known Willie all these years. He was a pleasure to work with.If you asked Willie to handle a situation, you KNEW it was going to be taken care of. There were many birthday celebrations of our friends that we got to socialize outside of work. Willie was always the same at work or away...just a friendly, easy-going, nice man. I will certainly miss him. My sympathy to Elise, Junior, and all the rest of his family. Your memories will keep you close until you meet again.

The lord is my shepard; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteoousness for his name's sake. Yea, though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. LaMark Lisenbee and Family
