Ralph, our hearts and prayers are with you during this time. Willa was a wonderful person and will certainly be missed by all who knew her. I cannot imagine what it may be like to loose my wife or sister. Such a wonderful life cut short. The only conciliation is that she is waiting in Heaven for you and is free of pain. May God Bless you with good memories and ease the pain of your grief. For Billy, Bobby, Ralph and all the Minter family, what wonderful friends you have been over the many years I have known you. It is like loosing my own sister. I still remember when I was a young teen, giving Willa a rabbit that I had raised! That has got to have been over 40 years ago! You all a special family and I am honored to be you friend. I hope all the prayers and well wishes will bring peace to all of you. God has blessed us with the gift of Willa's life. May God continue to Bless and protect all of you.

Our life is like a tapestry of intricate design, with lovely patterns taking shape as colors intertwine. Some of the threads we weave ourselves, by things we choose to do. Sometimes a loving Father's touch adds a special hue. And though tomorrow's pattern is not for us to see, we can trust his faithful hand through all eternity. Thank you Willa for bringing your beautiful colors to my tapestry. No others will ever be the same.
