Not sure what to say?

I worked with Willie at Bartells in Seattle. He quickly became a great friend and never failed to entertain us all. We shared many fun days, nights, and pints. I would like to send my regards to his family and express my sympathy for your loss. Willie was an awesome person who I felt I had known forever. I will truly miss him and his friendship. God Bless Willie and you all!

Carol and family,

I am so heartbroken to hear of Willie's passing. You have all been through so much over the last couple years, and I'm so sorry to know that it ended this way. I hope you will all be comforted by memories of happy times together. You will continue to be in our prayers.

We were very fond of Willie and enjoyed visiting with him when he would stop by to see Vince. Sometimes he'd come right in, sit down, and start talking about politics.
He had such a wonderful personality and such big plans. One would think Willie was ready to change the world. We will always hold him very close to our hearts.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Willie was one of the nicest people that I ever worked with. I worked with him at the Pizza Ranch, and he would always try to turn me onto classic rock. I saw him right before he moved to Seattle and he was the same person, having a good time. I am sorry for the loss, Willie was a genuinely good person and he will be missed.

Ken, Carol, Dan and Adam

I'll alway remember the times when i would sit at the Marthon gas station and talk with Willie about classic rock bands, and who the great one's were, and can't forget everytime Willie and Vince would come out to Mike's House to party we would always make Willie and Vince play the guitar for us. Willie was a fun guy to be with, the world just lost one heck of a guy, and I'm sadly going to miss him.

Carol,

We are thinking about you. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I used to work with Willie at Marathon gas station. He was very quiet at first but got comfortable not to long after. We talked and laughed and every shift that we worked together, we would play hangman. Even when he had to work and i had off i would come in for gas and ask if wanted to play hangman. He always won and I would always get so mad. We also started a name for him "Willow" and thats all i ever called him. To this day i still dont know if he was annoyed with that name or if he...
