Papa Willie at MATHSLINK
Papa Willie was at MATHSLINK too!
 When
his baby daughter, Roxanne was there
He visited us while Roxanne was there.
He paid his dues promptly, often to the embarrassment of Don
Katz,
Ceo of MATHSLINK.
Papa Willie would cycle his baby daughter,
Roxanne,
to MATHSLINK
Papa Willie repaired shoes
Many a shoe from many children he repaired
Literally free of charge
Papa Willie was a gentleman
Little did we know he'd go so soon
But we knew much that life to him was important
and life youth, even more so
We love you Papa Willie
and cheers to you too!
We love you papa Willie
Very much
We appreciate your honesty
love and laughter
Papa Willie was a Rasta
and MATHSLINK not
yet in his humility
entrusted his baby daughter to us
and in the process, allowed us access to his house, his heart,
his home
thus love
His baby daughter, Roxanne
-a MATHSLINK student
was proud of him
Roxanne is a great person
she came to us as a child needing support for MATHSLINK
we did what we could to help where we were asked to
Roxanne enjoyed the support and comfort
Roxanne liked poetry
She talked a lot
was extremely comfortable when her dad-
papa Willie
dropped her off at the MATHSLINK premise
What a great girl
what a great person in her dad,
Papa Willie
Papa Willie spent some time with Eddie Grant
-yes, the famous international Reggae star
yet remained modest about this encounter with this Reggae soul
Papa Willie was a stalwart in the Parkwood area
Respected
Revered
Loved
involved in the community around him
Ironically today
Don Katz teaches at Fairmount High
The only High school in Parkwood
Further down the street that Papa willie lived
His family still lives there!
AIMSSEC lives on!
