In life you were a cool character, in death you have made your mini you very strong and enlightened him on the important things in life. You will be very missed papa bear but remembered with laughter and thankfulness for the time you spent and sillyness you brought with you when you visited. I think I can speak for your sons Wally Jr, Billy, and grandson little Bill Bill when I say time is precious and hind sight is 20/20 but the good memories are whats important. Love to you from all of us. I know your boys miss you very very much. May you RIP. See you in Heaven someday
