Farewell

(1/2) > >>

Pineau:
It is with a heavy heart that I break the news that our long-time friend Willy has passed away.
Willy passed away on October 11, 2021, with his wife by his side.
Willy lived life to the fullest and was an inspiration to many of the men here that came seeking help and advice. I only ever met him once but I had many conversations with him and joked and traded cultural insights with him on this site and private communications.
I have missed his comment and remarks.
I hope you will join me in wishing him a well-deserved farewell.

"Still happy to be living in Goungdong Province and witnessing what is taking place here .

Willy"

kenny:
This is sad news. I will miss his posts as well.

Hope wife and family are doing well.

Farwell Willy

Thanks for posting Jerry.  I had been trying to get in touch with him for a while now.  I'm saddened by this.  He was a good friend and wished I had stopped to visit him in December 2019.  I was recovering from an auto accident and movement was quite painful so it wasn't hard for my wife to talk me into staying home in Shaoguan.  Willy was a great guy and I will miss him.  I hope his wife is doing well.

Rhonald:
Yes sad news, thanks for the update Pineau. I had the pleasure of meeting Willy two times and take away fond memories.

Philip:
Sad to hear the news about Willy. I was fortunate enough to meet him in Zhongshan (with our wives) and in London (where we had lived for most of our lives). He certainly found the life he wanted in China with the person he wanted to be with.  You can't beat those Hunan girls. Rest in peace, Willy.
