Our deepest condolences to Francis, Ralph and Michael and loved ones from all of us. We’re so glad we were able to see you both, although the circumstances weren’t the best, last September. I’ll always have a place in my heart for Oncle Willi and will remember him and your family and the good memories we had together.

We all are very sad to hear from the loss of Willi. Especially the memories which Ingrid and Diethard shared with us of your get togethers before they went back to germany. Willi will always be in our hearts as a dear friend. Our prayers will be with you.

So sad to hear of your Dad’s passing.

Sincerest heart-felt condolences to you all.

Frances and family, I was so said to hear of your loss. I’m thinking of you and want to extend my deepest condolences.

Meine lieben Kanadier!

My “pfetterich” uncle Willi, means a lot to me, even separated in lifetime for miles…I always apreaciated his humor and wisdom and his special kind of “Maier” to show their love!Many times I invited him to come to Brazil to visit me, but his joke always was about the ” beens”, we eat here and he didn’t like.Even my offer to bake ” Linzer Torte” didn’t change his mind…but now, from heaven, he’s near to us and I hope that you, Ralph and Michael can feel him like I feel my father, Willi’s brother Kurt, every time I pray ” our Father, who is in heaven”…

My prayers for you and here in Londrina, the mass is offered for all of you

your thankful “Schwesterlein” Evi

Having known Willi since I was 13, I have so many memories of him. I can still hear him calling me “The Butcher”. That will always put a smile on my face. My deepest and most sincere sympathies to Frances, Ralph & Katrine, and of course my dearest friend Michael. My thoughts are with you all.

We wish to extend our condolences to Frances and the Maier family on the loss of Willi.

Our sympathies to the family. It has been our honour, getting to know the family, over many years.

Frances, Ralph, Michael:

Although we are saddened of Willi’s passing, we are grateful to have the memories of Willi, forever. I dont know how many times Frances called Willi home for Tea or dinner, while we were chatting in the backyard or garage. We are blessed to have had 12 years with the “greatest neighbor’s”

Deepest sympathy & sincere condolences on your loss. Willi was a wonderful man & was always willing to share his thoughts with those around at the YMCA. His humour was a tonic & we looked forward to seeing him at the Y. He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts & prayers will be for him. God bless you Willi lad….RIP.

Our deepest sympathies and condolences go out to the Maier family at this time. Your loss is felt by all that got to know Willi over the years. Those we love and lose are together with us in heart, forever with us in memory.
