Dear Pittman family, It has been many years since I have seen Willie J. My father was Willie Riley, who was Willie J's uncle. Aunt Annie was Dads sister. I am so sorry to hear of Willie J's death, I just heard about it from Pauline Burdette. I know he and dad were close when they were young, because they were close in age. If he was like my dad, he was a wonderful man. You and your family will be in my prayers. Love Alise Franklin 3730 Susan Jean Dr Addis,La 70710

Uncle Pitt was one of the kindest men I knew. He gave me hope that maybe there were men like him out there. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Jeannie, Jason and I are sorry we not able to make it to the ceremony. Willie was one of the sweetest, kindest men I have come to know. About the only time I ever saw him mad was when the Dr. told him he had to limit his peanut consumption to a tablespoon a day. Boy was he irritated. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
