This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Willie Edwards who was born on October 23, 1961 and passed away on November 6, 2010. We will remember him forever.  Willie's wishes were to donate his organs.  All his organs were strong and healthy and went to people in need, a lasting legacy, a gift of life.

Willie was a great friend and a great brother in-law and will be greatly missed by the whole Beebe family.
He was a good man and a great father and a loving husband to my sister and a great uncle to my girls.
I feel blessed to have been his friend and brother for 18 years and he will be greatly missed by the whole family.

We have so many great memories of Wille and wish the best for Allissa, Vince and Buck in their time off loss

My dear sweet Edwards and Bebee family...Oh how we all will miss Willie. We had some good times, some great laughs, and an even better friendship! Keaton loved his Willie-Man. One night when he was about 3 we were saying his nightly prayer...we always bless our family at the end and as we were going down the list and about to say "Amen" Keaton stopped me and said..."AND WILLIE-MAN". (so sweet) xo

Willie was the life of the party at Gramma & Grampa's...always joking and having fun and with that huge grin on his face. I think of him joining them & Gramma welcoming him with open, loving arms. We will miss his spirit. Thinking of you, cousins, with sadness for your loss and love in our hearts. Love you guys so much.

To Vinnie and Allissa, Tyler and I are so sorry for your loss. I remember the last time I was at your house for a party...I think it was the same party with the fire in the backyard in the pictures? Willie just had that familiar glint in his eye. Never a dull moment with Willie around!

Forever

I wrote your name in the sky
and the wind blew it away. 

I wrote your name in the sand
and the ocean washed it away.

I wrote your name in my heart
and there it will remain forever.

Willie, you will be remembered for so many things, but mostly the friendships you gave the world and the laughter you brought into so many lives. You were a husband, father, friend and hero...and I am proud to have known and called you friend.

Bret, Tony, and I will all miss Willie and the fun-loving guy he was. He always extended generosity and hospitality to us - if it was his, it was ours as well. Thanks for delicious seafood, fun times, and for teaching Tony to be an amazing poker player! You will be missed Willie...and we hope your peace far outweighs our sadness.

Happy Birthday Willie Man! I love looking at all the photos and cherishing all the memories when I come onto this site. This year we are going to start celebrating Dia De Los Muertos. We are going to honor you, remember you and call your spirit to us! Last year was really hard for me during this time--I was having such a dejavu being with Vince and his son. It reminded me so much of us when Vince was born, how happy we were. Vince was created out of so much LOVE! I will never forget.

Nothing you love is lost

January 28
Nothing you love is lost. Not really.  Things, people--they always go away sooner or later.  You cant hold them any more than you can hold moonlight.  But if they've touched you, if they're  inside you, then they're still yours. The only thing you ever really have are the ones you hold inside your heart.

By / From Jerry Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher

Poem By Vincent

March 2, 2013

Lost in the Woods, Lost in Life.
It is winter, the sun is in hiding, like myself.
Looking for a man, a woman, a road,
something that will lead to safety, or satisfaction.
Missing my baby, my wife, my dog that i never had.
Pleading for water, a cigar, a blanket or a doctor
that will bring me happiness.
Alienated, never to be found.

Profoundly Written by Vincent Edwards

Fred & Ethel

November 17, 2010

Fred and Ethel was Willie favorite thing for Willie to call us.not mom or pops we had willie in our family  for at least 20 years.I remember the day he married my sweetchild he played 18 holes the moring of the wedding he then came to  the hotel to get ready we found him in the bar throwing down gin and tonics. I sent him up stairs. to dress. he could not figure out how to button the shirt to his tux so  he went out to the hallway and found a woman to help him. It was amazing that he could stand up   to marry my daughter. That was just the start Willie was so good to me and always acted like he had miss me so much when he came home from fishing. I think it was for my chicken and noodles or fried chicken. He was so good to us he came to Sacrameto to drive the big truck back to Seattle. He always came when I called for help. I have so many stories I could write all nite.    Fred and I loved Willie Man so much .I can say I have not lit any candles but I cried for 3 days you have read the other stories take those times 100 and that was the fun we had . He had a horrible demon in his head that just took over and as much as we tried we could not seem to help.My parnets died a few years back and if there is heaven i can promise you my mother is waiting at the gate for him.Allof our family will miss him so much . He was a good father a great soninlaw He love his boys so much.He went to the games taught the boys all about sports and sportmanship. He has put a hole in my heart that will never go away but we do have Vinnie and Buck to reminds us that he will never forgotten.I do wish my daughter the strenght to love again and never forget her first love.I miss you Willie we love you and wish you could still be with us. I have to sign off as here come the tears again. Good  nite Willie       love Mom and Pops.
