Our Condolences and prayers to the Family
Willie was my very dear friend. He was the first person I met when I moved to Alabama 17 years ago, and he was so friendly. He was a hardworking man who kept busy all the time. There were very few moments when Willie was sitting down. He was ready to help anyone, even if it meant opening his home to a stranger. Willie had a rough life at first, but he worked hard to turn things around for himself and get right with God. I was so proud of him when he told me he was a minister. Willie was a kind man who forgave easily and held no grudge. He was everyone’s friend. My heart breaks for his family, but I know he is finally resting in the arms of the Lord. Rest In Peace, my friend. Until we meet again.
With Deepest Sympathy and Condolences
