A massive thank you to everyone who came along to show respect, give support and celebrate the life of this unique and much loved man.
It was a hugely emotional day for all of us, but I personally felt very privileged to have called this man my friend.
We had a collection to purchase a memorial bench for Willy, and raised a massive Β£241.65, so heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated.
The bench will be homed at The Red Lion, where over the years, Willie enjoyed the music scene there many times.
We really want to have one made, rather than buy a standard bench, so if anyone knows of someone who can help with this, please pm me.
