Eins, zwei, drei
Nobody heard his cry,
Vier, fünf, sechs
As everybody has left,
Sieben, acht, neun, zehn
He spent his entire life in pain,
Not the kind that you see blood,
But it bleeds, just the same.

Willi and I were friends since we were 6 years old and I spoke with him once or twice a year over the last number of years and I always enjoyed our talks and the few visits we had as I was not in Regina very often. I have many fond memories of Willi and will never forget him. He will live on in our memories. We are saddened at his passing. Bryan And Dianne Kingston
Willi and I developed a friendship at Central Collegiate Regina. We discovered that we had a common interest in model railroading and starting working on a layout in my parents basement on Toronto St., Regina in 1966. Although we never completed our layout we developed a close friendship that lasted most of our life. I lived in various cities through most of my life but would always contact Willi whenever I had the chance when returning to Regina for a few days. I'm sad to hear of his passing, he was great friend to talk to! Bill Wilson.
