Consistent.  That's how I'll always remember you, Willie.  You said what you meant and meant what you said.  I'll miss our visits but we know you are in a much better place and in perfect health.   So, RILP, Willie.  We love you.

Unto we all meet again,

Harvell, Rosa, Harvie & Harrison (Howard)

I would always help Mrs.Willie every chance I had after I got out of school. It’s was a blessing to be able to help her . I knew she enjoyed me helping because she will call my name from her bedroom while I was on the end of the street. 

Remembering Willie is a treat!  Our journey through life has brought us tears, laughter, fun, and many memories! I will miss our evening porch visits, road trips, and "guess what?" phone calls but I know that you are with me in spirit. Despite living in different parts of the country for the majority of our friendship,  you were someone I could always turn to for a genuine smile, a helping hand, and a truthful word.

With that, I wipe my tears dry and my laughter fades away but the memories will live on forever. 

May God bless and keep your family, Leona, JC, Warren, and everyone else whose life you touched.

Much love,
Lou Dovie Hill 

Willie, 
What great times we shared! One of my fondest memories is when you would ask me to fry you a pork chop when you came to Kansas City. Now, every time I fry pork chops, I will think of you and smile.

Love you,

Eddie

Willie (Wibby to me),
You will be sadly missed, but I will always remember the conversations we had from time to time.  As a family member, you would tell it like it was.  When I bake pound cakes using your recipe, oh what sweet memories I will have. We loved you, but God loved me more!
Aunt Zell

Cousin Willie, 
Reflecting back remembering our phone calls talking about this that and the other, laughing and just enjoying each other.
You fought a good fight, no more pain or suffering. Wish I could taste another piece of your wonderful pound cake, but Mom's got the recipe! Gonna miss you!

Cousin Sharon

So Many Memories
No matter what time of day or night when I would speak to Willie, these words always came from her. " Ummphh, Ummphh, Ummphh"
somewhere in the conversation! She was a true soldier who fought until the end. Cuz, truly you will be missed.

Love You
Kay

In fond memory of a cousin, former classmate, and friend, Willie.  She is to be remembered as one who tenaciously held on to life, refusing to give up despite her physical frailties.  The times we spent in fellowship and prayer will be cherished memories for us.  We will miss her calling and asking if we have cooked anything sweet lately. To God be the glory! 
Lloyd and Jean Hervey 

I have so many fond memories of Willie.  Especially in the summer times visiting dad in Detroit , and we will go over and stay the weekend.  Having her fuss at us, especially when Regina and Shay get together clowning, and Porsha, Kim,  Sylvia, Tricie, and I on the side laughing.  

I will treasure those elephants you gifted me forever.... You will definitely be missed, Rest in Peace Wille!

Aunt Willie was a strong woman and taught her nieces to be strong women. She made me feel like I was her child. I  will miss her so, but I have no doubt she's in the best place she could ever be.    She's now with uncle Bobby ,Grandma, much family and many friends having a time oh,what a time. 
Love you Aunt Willie 

Hey cuz…

The coolest cousin a person could ever have .. Even though you got me in trouble when I was about 14years old, urshedell and earthel wanted to kill me when I drove that customers car home from the car wash… and you just had to tell on me… lol…. Cuz ,the phone calls and occasional visits and us just shootin the breeze and talking about everybody will be truly missed. 
Willie Pearson, keep your eyes on us we will miss you..
Love you

Dear Cousin Willie,

I'm remembering how happy my dad was when you came to visit him here in my home in Texas.  He really enjoyed reminiscing about the good old days. And I'm remembering the wonderful time I had having breakfast with you Bobby & Leona before church service when my church was fellowshipping with yours.  Then on our last visit your health had begun to fail and you couldn't make it to church like you wanted to so l came to  your home.  It was a blessing that I was able to spend some time with you. I will cherish all of the memories that I've had with you. I thank God that he has removed all your pain and you are now walking around Heaven rejoicing with all your loved ones!!  

Well, Aunt Willie I didn't believe that you would ever leave us. You were definitely a tough one.  Between you and Doc, I'm not sure what Heaven is going to be like now. God has His hands full now. Be nice up there and save me a good laugh. Love you and tell Doc to hold it down until we all get together again. Miss you but I know that you are not suffering any more.
Never forgotten...
Lia

My Aunt Willie

Theres nothing like a relationship between an aunt and a niece.  She's been a auntee, a sister, a mother and my homegirl all rolled into one. It's nothing me and my Auntee didn't share or talk about.  We would talk on the phone for hours about anything and anybody.  It was nothing Aunt Willie
wouldn't do for her love ones.  The end of the road is an under statement. I will miss her and I love her with everything in me.  But my heart and mind knows she's in no more pain and she is resting well with the father in heaven.  To be absent from the body is to be present with the lord.  Love you Auntee, until we meet again. 

Every  phone call always started off as so..... 
Her- P.J., what you know good? 
Me- Nothing much Auntie, what’s going on down that way? Followed by the typical trash talk about who hasn’t called who and the usual “Conway News Update”. RoyDean what is yawl gone do with this boy here?, was her usual question about me since I was born and still till this day I don’t think my parents ever could give her a straight answer. The most I’ll miss about Aunt Willie is our loving/dysfunctional/trash talking conversations besides the fact since Grandma past away I stayed at Aunt Willies house when I go down south. Willie Pearson I love you and I’m gone miss you! 
Love your nephew, Paris John 

Well Willie, We have been through a lot down through the years. Not all of it was good, but we always made up and went on to the next thing. You let me vent to you about Bobby when we got into it. You usually took my side. As your health got worse, you were a tough old cookie. You never gave up. To the Family, we all have memories of Willie. Never forget.

Leona
