On this 2nd Anniversary of your passing I want to tell you, that today I remembered that you told me the fried ham skin is called Chicharon. This was the correct answer to the question on the radio. Of course I proudly called and told them, since it came from the Master of Spanish. I'm writing this while in Jilly's home and remembering how proud of it she was. We all spent Christmas here together. The memories of you live on and so we will always be connected in spirit. May you continue to have peace until that glorious day when we all meet again.
Love and miss you, Kathy-Ann

Happy anniversary! Love always Babs.

Candle lit by Bernice and Bernadette Joseph on 25th January 2013
  Born on October 2nd, Feast of the Holy Guardian Angels, our parents named him William Angel---- indeed not a coincidence.To us his sisters, Phylma and Bernice, Willie was a "Guardain Angel". He was quite protective of us...so caring! His frequent phone calls can attest to this

And oh! THE MUSIC...! Our valued collection of classical, religious, in fact----" ART MUSIC" is a result of his unstincting generosity. Stainer's "Crucifiction" and " The Seven Last Words" are two of the many works he so generously shared with us. 
  God rest your soul , Willie. You have been a wonderful brother... a peaceful soul! Rest in Peace.

Any problem or concern we had, we promptly called him; and his thoughtful response and invaluable advice--- often assisted by Barbara's imput--- always "soothed" the situation and brought us peace of mind. Very often subsequent phone calls would follow, addressing further the problem discussed, from a different perspective, making sure that we were satisfied.

Today I thought of you when I listened to a concert featuring the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Thank you for introducing me to that beautiful classical music which I came to love and enjoy and which we listened to together for hours at a time.
Love you always

Always The Gentlleman and one of the great Pres teachers. Willie remained a great supporter of The College all his life. He gave me great moral support when I needed it. Strange that I came upon his funeral program yesterday while sorting through some of my papers. Always fondly remembered " Todos " .

I remember Mr. Joseph who was renowned for his Spanish skills. He was quiet and unassuming. His daughter Jillian and i were good friends, and i remember Jillian as i write this because that is when I learned she was no longer here. if there is a good place for those who lived a righteous life, I am sure that he is now there.

Dearest Uncle Willie,
Slowky here again. I remembered you on your first anniversary and dedicated my Burt Bacharach cd to your memory. You introduced me to his music which I'll always love.
You are gone but certainly not forgotten. RIP until we meet again.

I will always remember you as a gentle and hospitable man - softly spoken and with a vast wealth of knowledge. I well remember our last conversation in March 2011 - I didn't know then you were not that well. Look after my Roger (RIP 10/11/12) - will you please? And all our other loved ones. Until we meet again your memory will live on. Cousin Linda.

So kind, so gentle.....those are my thoughts when I think of you. I remember going to meet you up at Pres. College with Aunty Barbara and the girls.....such happy memories. It was my first experience going to the college where my boys would walk those very corridors so many years later. RIP Uncle Willie. Luv Deborah

I will always remember the fun times we had as young dudes fêting all over South Trinidad in my mother's Morris; as adults: your visits to Ottawa for some snow-shovelling, dancing to my music at Chateau Laurier, long-distance phone conversations. I was always inspired by your generosity, wit, intelligence, wide-ranging interests. My dearest friend: you remain foremost in my thoughts

A SILENT TEAR
Just close your eyes and you will see
All the memories that you have of me
Just sit and relax and you will find
I'm really still there inside your mind
Don't cry for me now I'm gone
For I am in the land of song
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear
Don't think of me in the dark and cold
For here I am, no longer old
I'm in that place that's filled with love
Known to you all, as "up above"
- Author Unknown

I just saw this and thought that’s exactly what you’d say. Rest well and enjoy that land of song. We all love and miss you . Until we meet again, love Slowky
