Willi was truly a bright light on many dark days. His perpetual optimism and good cheer were so instrumental in making a challenging day a day in which to rejoice. His absence will be felt, but his eternal positivism will remain with us forever. God Bless.

Lydia, I know the pain you are feeling right now is unexplainable because it was and still is to me but now that God only takes the best. You and I were both blessed with wonderful husbands and our children were blessed with amazing dads. The memories Willie left behind will eternally be there for you and your family to cherish. He will always be watching over his family. May The Lord grant you peace and comfort and give you the strength you need. You and your family are in my prayers....
