It is with great regret that I learned of Uncle Willie's and Aunt Miriam's passing away,from our cousin George Arwady. My memories Uncle Willy have always been of a happy go lucky one hundred percent Angelic Arwady...as is the case with his brothers and sisters, my mother Victoria, Aunt Evelyn who took care of me and my mother with Aunt Helen who is deeply grieved by the loss of her dear Bill. My being taken care of by my Aunt Evelyn, Helen effects my appreciation more and more as the years go by. My uncle Nick and Aunt Mae gave me four years of "real family life in Detroit" living with my cousin Larry between the age of seven and twelve years old when I left Saint Johnlands boarding Home. The example of the Arwady family sense of loyalty and sacrifice is a great lesson and ideal for all of the family and friends. Nobody has every reached the Himalayan heights of that truth as Uncle Willy who was eternally present for beloved Miriam ever since I knew them when I was only twelve. The only satisfaction we can have in their disparition is that they are reunited in Heaven eternally young and in perfect health. My other regret is not being abler to come and share your grieve and stay with Aunt Helen in Florida to alleviate hers. You see I was planning to go to stay in florida and strangely applied for my renewal my American passport last friday and it will not be sent to my home before another week or so. All of My our love and sincere condolences from Charles + Ghalia Boragi in Paris our Children Brian and Bianca( in Yale University Art dept.) and my sisters Joanie Boragi (Who is Bill's Goddaughter) and our sister Kathy Garafola ..Love to All knowing that our constant love and thoughts for are departed loved ones gives them eternal life in our earthly conscience. Peace and Love to All
