Jennifer says,

I can just imagine what he's seen in Hamilton in his lifetime. This picture perfectly composes what Willie sees everyday in the midst of the hustle and bustle of downtown.

Claire says,

I really enjoy this shot. Making heroes of us all again, Larry.

Lisa says,

Willie looks like he has alot of stories to tell. I'm glad you've included him in your mosaic of Hamiltonians.

Heather says,

Your photo makes Willie the most important person on the street, with the others as a backdrop!

Mary says,

My first thought was pictures of those of use who are successful or fortunate, I was very happy to see this picture, when I lived downtown... Willie was always there to say good morning every single day... I loved Willie and will always remember him

newfie willie is not to be trusted under any circumstances hes is a thief and will rob you blind given the chance other than that hes great

Deanna says,

Willie is a survivor and most likely could write an interesting life story !!!

Larry Strung says,

Willies funeral was today. It was really well attended, and a lot of kind words were spoken about his kind heart. It's the end of an era as the last of the "three proud men from Newfoundland" have passed away.
Sadly, there will be many more to take their place living on the streets of Hamilton. May God bless you and look out for you all.
