    Willie was the unpaid counselor and adviser for numerous students at Valencia College. Young people know when you sincerely care about them and “Mr. Willie” was that unique individual. He always reminded me that Loretta and I treated him like a little brother when he was only a year younger. He forgave me :).
    My condolences to the family with heartfelt sympathy.
