Granddad I miss you so much its crazy all i can think about is all the good times we had as a family. It will never be the same no that we lost you and auntie life is a crazy thing how moment your here then the next moment your not. It taught me a valuable lesson on compassion and cherishing others. I cry all the time now and I have isolated myself from others and choose to be alone for now cause I dont know how to handle the heart break of losing someone else. I miss you so much. I know if you were here I could tell you anything and you would understand and not judge me and except me still. Gpa you love me regradless of the decisions I make and my right and wrongs. There will never be another person like you on earth. I wish I could take your place just so you could share your love and passion for others a bit longer. I know that the last 2 years I fell in the cracks but I will see you again. I promise to live my life in the way you would have wanted me too. To enjoy every moment and everybody. Love you and watch over me please !!!!!!!!

Another Day of missing the time we spent together.  Never forgetting the happy times and the last trip we took together with family,   R.I.P. 

you never changed tried hard to be a friend to everyone in the family ou said "Im like the Lone Rider I Travel Alone." which you did.  Let people use you when I told you they didnt mean you any good and you would say thats ok I'm not going to worry about it baby,  You had a good spirit about you to the end never complained about your sickness you would say long as you all right I'm all right,  long as you here with me I will be ok  I promised you I would never send you to a nursing home and I kept that promise.  I enjoyed being a part of your life each and every day altho you couldn't walk or do much for your self,  R.I.P

Willie was also known as the "Gray Fox". The greatest dad in the whole world. He was a husband, father,grandfather,great grandfather,uncle,brother,and friend to all. He always had a good spirit about him. Never had a bad word to say about anyone. A hardworking man. And always was there for anyone that needed him. His laughter put anyone in a good mood. Great sense of humor. I love and truly miss him. I will always be your queen daddy.
