It was with a high degree of sadness and shock to learn My Sweet and Beautiful Sister-in-Law passed away. Wila is one of God’s most favorite Children, I believe, because of Her caring, nurturing and loving personality. Wila loved life, Her Family and most of all Jesse, Her Husband of over 50 years! I am grateful We were able to spend Christmas with this wonderful Lady in Texas! As Christians, We know Wila is now having a “reunion” with all of Her Family and Friends who left this physical world before Her, a comforting thought. Goodbye My Sister-inLaw, till We meet again, one sweet day in Heaven!

Sister I miss you so much! Thank you for being there for me when I needed you the most. It was so hard having to remove you from my phone list. I was so use to calling you every morning to start my day. I miss our grocery shopping our casino times and taking you to your doctors appointments. You were my rock my counselor and my best friend. You will always be loved! Hope your now having fun in heaven. Be with God and the others who left us. Love you my sis!

I don’t know where to start we had the Time of our lives at Disneyland. Especially when we were all hiding our beers from Joey like little kids so that we wouldn’t get caught. I will never forget those days and when I was growing up I loved being at your house. I love you Tia Willa and will miss you so much. You’re now with your love and your daughter.
