Our prayers are with you and your family. Your mom and dad were wonderful people and hard workers. I remember them as a team working behind the counter at the skating rink with eagle eyes looking out for all the kids. Many times your mom would give Willy a look and he was over the counter taking care of any that didn't show respect. Parents knew their kids were at a safe place because of them. Of course they handed out their share of band-aids too. God Bless your family.

Willy was a wonderful, kind man. Like everyone else, the skating rink has many memories. Margie and he would always take care of us smaller kids and never let anyone bother us. He didn't mind escorting someone to the door if need be. He was a very kind hearted man who will be missed. Memories will keep him alive. Prayers for all of you.
