Hi Daddy, it’s me again, Bootsie
It’s late July 2020 and so very often I want to pick up the phone and talk to you or share something with you or just thank you for all the things you’ve done for me or just tell you that I love you. So I have this little yellow pad I would’ve got a nice journal, but you are the yellow pad man and I write you letters, there are so many times that I want to share something with you, and so many things that remind me of you, like my front doorstep that I have to go through several times a day and you were right that ugly brown paint and mold, in literally less than a month before God called you to his side, and it really changed of my entire entryway and I have all my beautiful plants there as well end it reminds me of you every single. I miss you and I will write you soon I love you  bootsie 

My father my friend, who adored my children never missed a birthday, we will miss him lots.

Hi Daddy, I miss you so much, everywhere I go in everything I do brings back so many memories all the things you taught me to be a self-sufficient woman has really paid off, as I can change my own tire, or my oil or fix my toilet or take care of my garden certainly how to run a business, you were always there for me daddy, you were my best friend, and I am so sorry that I wasn’t there for you that day, but I truly believe that you are with your brothers and your dad and I will see you soon we had a wonderful service for you and the whole family came down, you will love the little location I chose for you over in the shade and I go and visit you often and play music, you were so very thoughtful dad to have made some plans because truly we all including all seven grandchildren very much so appreciated your financial generosity and most importantly Daddy I have all of your special photos and family stuff and military awards and furniture and everybody has something of yours although you know how I cherish everything and I will make sure all the generations to come know their roots and what a wonderful man you are. There is an a day that doesn’t go by that I don’t shed a tear, I never knew something that could hurt this much but please know that I am OK, and I can’t wait to see you. I’ll talk to you soon XO booty

Have such fond memories of Will. He had some really great stories from “back in the day.”  He will be missed. 


We will always miss Willy, but take with us all the great memories that we have shared. It is always too soon when we lose some one beloved. Prayers to the family at this difficult time. May he rest in peace.
