I will always remember uncle Willis. It started back on the farm in Sask in the late 50's. Lots of memories....like Willis and Orville learning to play shuffleboard in Wasaga Beach in the early 80's. In later years I became his Cuban Rum boy........sure helped those long evenings at the kitchen table when we tried to solve all the worlds problems. Sincere condolences to all family members. He was a good guy......we'll miss him. Gary
