    Willie your light will continue to shine. You would look at a voyager kit or trailer & go home in build one. Amazing. You kept Richmond Steel in business. You left so many ❤️ memories, may Bonnie and your family cherish.

    Willie will be greatly missed but he suffers no more and is in the arms of his Lord that he loved so very much. He was also very loved by his beautiful wife Bonnie and all of his Bonus children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. I felt so Blessed to be a part of ypur beautiful service. You could.feel the love and gratitude from the moment you walked in. You were one of the greatest cousins anyone could ask for and I’ll forever cherish any time I was able to spend with you. From the time I was a little girl I always admired the kind hearted man you were and never did I hear a harsh word spoken against you. Go rest High with your Lord Willie for your pain and worries are over here in this old world. It’s now time to reunite with all your family that’s been waiting on you up there in heaven and WOW what a reunion that has been and its only just begun. All of us down here will.see.you when our time comes to go home with the Lord. I love ya Willie and sending much love and prayers to your precious Bonnie and all the family. I will also cherish the motorcycle rides you’d take and come by to see us. You even took me for a spin on that beautiful Harley you loved so much and I felt privileged to ride with my cousin on his favorite toy. ❤️
