 Please accept our deepest sympathy, and please let us know if there is anything we can do to help.
Just remember that you have an extended family that will be there for you that covers not only the United states, but is world wide.

 God speed Willie.

I don't know what to say, as I am in shock hearing this.

Sheri,

I am so sorry. We love you. Willie was a good man and I will miss him. Godspeed Willie, and may you rest in peace.

I wasn't done learning from the posts on Willie's Build.

I told Willie on this forum that I planned to go to my first Speed Week event. Willie told me to "Look us up, just look for the white mailbox." I can't do that now. My loss... our loss.

God Speed Willie

  Willie, may you rest in peace.  Sheri, his suffering is over, now we only have you to worry about.
  We all care about you as much as we did Willie.  You are not alone......... stay strong and God bless.
