Willie was employed at Victor Manufacturing, formally employed by Quantum Plastics. Willie’s hobbies were playing pool, playing cornhole and driving the ranger. He loved his tunes and sitting around a good fire. He especially loved hanging out with his coop family. His famous words were “Ta Da” and “Quick fast in a hurry.” Calling someone a “sissy baby” was the highlight of his night.

Willie had a contagious smile, an infectious laugh and a heart of gold. He will be deeply missed.

He is survived by his sisters, Karen (Rob) Wetzel of West Virginia and Leslie (John) Derby of North Carolina; Uncle Edward (Shirley) Myers, Aunt Lorraine Cole, Uncle Lyle Myers all of West Virginia. Also surviving are several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
