God saw the road was getting rough the hills were hard to climb, He gently
Closed his weary eyes and whispered "Peace Be Thine!"

Willie was a devoted, father, grandfather, brother, and uncle. Anyone who knew him, knows he loved and
lived life to the fullest. He enjoyed celebrations with family and friends, and was sure to make time for
anyone in his presence.
Willie was the best to ever do this thing we call "life". We have all learned so much about life and love
from him. He was a very wise man, protector, and the best babysitter our moms had chosen for us. We
promise you, no other has done it better. In the dictionary of our hearts by the word love is, Uncle Willie.
Willie would never let you leave his presence without a "hug" or a "kiss" on the hand. As we would say
our goodbyes and I love you, his reply was "Always". So, as you take your rest, we thank you for
everything and for being a great male role model. "Always", is how we'll carry you in our hearts.
