    “I will miss my brother Willy very much.  He was a very good brother to me and loved to be around his family and friends.  He adored his three daughters and always tried to provide for them more than he ever had. He was very kind, sharing and loved sports, music, food, drinks and to entertain people.  He loved to research information and share with others, and could give advice on just about any subject.  But he was extremely good at mathematics and was always willing to help others learn the concepts. He was funny, told jokes and laughed even when the joke was on him. Rest in peace my dear brother, until we meet again.”
