I am truly sorry for the loss and pain that you Vangie and the Stone family and friends are feeling because of losing Willie recently in death. Most of us have had to endure the sorrow of losing a loved one in death. What helped me the most was prayer and faith in God's promises like found here at 1 Corinthians 15: 26 and it tells us: "And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing." Isaiah 33:24 guarantees us: "And no resident will say "I am sick," ever again. God's kingdom that Jesus taught us to pray for at Matt. 6: 9, 10 will bring about these wonderful promises, including the resurrection. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, but we are all guaranteed a resurrection. (John 5:28, John 6:40, John 11:23-25) Jehovah wants you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in your time of grief. Psalm 34:18
I will keep you in my prayers.

We first met Willie 11 years ago when he built a house for us. We became friends with him and Casey, and kept in touch.
We are going to miss him.
Our prayers are with the family in this time of sorrow.

Dear Vangie,

It's hard to express the friendship you, and then Willie, played in high school days in Heber. It was so obvious that you two would have a wonderful life together. I'm so glad that you were able to have that gift. I am touched by all the comments from your friends and community. True testaments of the life that Willie led.

My heart is sad for your loss, but, joyful in knowing that Willie left such blessed memories and legacies for his family and friends. I'll be sending prayers and light for you as you find Peace in the coming days. AS Willie's Family has requested, I will make a donation to one of his special causes. Love you all..Julie
