Uncle Willie was truly one of the best. We will always remember him as being kind, generous, and always happy to see us and to hear about what we had been doing. Our memories of Uncle Willie go back to some of the very first memories we have as young children. We would be so excited to see him, Leah, Wayne, Greg, and Dean when we were visiting Grandma and Grandpa’s. We always had so much fun on those visits.
Uncle Willie was a great influence on our lives. He taught us how to ski, brought us to the Calgary Stampede, to rugby games, to football games, to hockey games, even to Stampede Wrestling…and he fed us scrambled cheese eggs every chance he could.
Each of us have Uncle Willie’s paintings hanging in our homes. We will always cherish them for ourselves and we are proud to tell others about one of our favourite artists, our Uncle Willie.
Uncle Willie, thank you for everything you did for us, we were so lucky to have you as an uncle.
We will always remember you.
Love,
Norina, Wally, Kelsey, Kostan,
Ernie, Jen, Eli, Jonah, Marika,
Brian, Karen, Pyper
