William Warner Obituary

To the Warner Family,
I can not even begin to tell you how shocked I was to hear that Willy had passed. I know it's been many years since I've been around your family but I truely believe that we both kept a special place for each other in our hearts. Willy was a generous giving person who would have done anything for his family and friends and that smile WOW you couldn't help but smile back when you were around him. My thoughts and prayers to all of you and a special thank you for always making me feel welcome. Connie please keep in touch and let me know how your family is doing!!! Take care,
Sandy (Wermager) Arntzen

I knew Willy and many of the Warner family many years ago. Was saddened to hear he had become so ill and heartbroken to hear he had passed. My heart and prayers go out to his kids and family. I know he is at peace and without illness or pain now. For that I am glad, he deserves that. He always treated me well and I was lucky to know him. Rest in peace Willy! To the rest of the Warner family may time bring back the smiles & memories that you are all so blessed to have of Willy. If any one could make you laugh it was him, you are blessed to call him brother.

Willy,
Bob and I want you to know that we miss you and love you. We are doing everything we can to fulfill your wishes for Travis and Allison. You don't have to worry - we'll get it done. Pray for us. Say 'hi' to Gail, Clay, Allen, Ricky, Gary and Dad. We are praying for you all. Some day we will all be back together.

Willie was really "one of a kind". A very kind and giving person with a sense of humor, that nobody can compare too. He had great friends and loved his kids very much. He talked about them all the time at work with me. I am going to miss him very much.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Bob, Janelle and family, our thoughts and prayer are with you at this difficult time.
Rayann and Rick Dennis

If a man's worth can be judged by the impact he has made in in the lives he has come in contact with you were worthy beyond measure. Your attitude and nature made it a pleasure to work with you. My only regret is that I never really got to know you beyond the confines of where we made our living but I thank you for that time...

Willy shared everything he had, his smile, his jokes, his stories, his help. can't remember ever having a cross word with Willy even on his worst day. My thoughts are with you all, he is a good man.

Willy is going to be greatly missed at Pella. He was always smiling and willing to lend a hand for the team on a moments notice, and was a talented carpenter. It was wonderful to have him as such an integral part of our organization, and will be missed deeply. Our thoughts and prayers are with his children and family.

Willy was one of the nicest guys. He was so thoughtful and always could put a smile on my face. He will be missed! My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
