  1. Dear Zuniga family, I'll so miss Willie and was glad I got to share some time with him during his last few days. We were very close in high school and he was best man in our wedding. He and your folks opened up their house to me while I was waiting to go into the army. What a wonderful close family. Love to all. It was good to meet Linda at the hospital. Charlie Scott

  2. Remember him during High School. Wonderful personality and smile. Loved watching him with the team play basketball. Rest in Peace.
