Willie recently bought his prized possession, a '68 Nova. He enjoyed sewing clothes for military action figures and displaying his American flag. And Willie loved dancing, listening, singing Elvis records, but the thing he loved the most was his family, enjoying nearly 53 years of marriage to his beloved wife, Twylia.
