Uncle Willie, a kind hearted, respected man. Oh, not to forget a very educated and successful man at that. A man that helped so many! To me my uncle was in balance with his life, taking care of himself in all categories. Even though there is and will be a lot of emptiness in my life I believe he is in a Beautiful place now. I will cherish the music he played on his piano, what a Gift. He was Blessed and so was I along with so many others. I will cherish all the memories spent together and the time that I was able to visit. It was like old times. We laughed, we cried, all good stuff. A very happy day for us both. We hugged, as normal for our family, gave Uncle a kiss and told him that I loved him and would see him again. I asked him what I could get him and he said "bring me some nectarines, they should be good and ripe right now" I said I would, not knowing this would be my last visit, my farewell. Uncle Willie will always be the "Special Uncle" in my life. I will miss him deeply; although Uncle Willie will always be loved and live in my heart forever. A LOVING AND CARING UNCLE TO HIS FAMILY!!!!
