My deepest and most sincere condolences to the Tabron family. Willis was such a dear friend and hard worker. I worked at the EC post office with Willis for 28 years before I left. . Willis was so funny and many days was how a lot of us got through our day. Some may not know that Willis was a great dancer also. He was a true friend who would help you however he could. My girls still quote one of Willis' saying from visiting the post office on 'bring your kids to work day'. On this one particular visit, he accused someone of 'hatritism' (I guess that's how it would be spelled). It was so funny because a bunch of us started looking for it on Google but it wasn't there because it was his own word. My girls still say it to this day. You are not suffering anymore my dear friend and you're definitely in a better place so no "hatritism' from me. You'll truly be missed.

We were neighbors, as neighbors we shared with all memories. YOU WERE A CLASSMATE, we passed each other along the way, up & down the Halls at Shaw, graduation day ,us Cardinals in June. We wore thst robe with pride. A bread winner for your family, a Marine for your country, a dancer that made every muscle ache weather on the side walk, in the street or in the home. Human... yes you were, & now leaving others to carry on. No longer will you be able to say "shut up"Roz" & grin like nobodies business my friend., or tell me you "know what time it is" my friend, Everybody gets a day. May you rest in peace Willie ! & my condolences family. B.K.A ROZ.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

My condolences to the family of my dear friend Willis. We were coworkers at Collinwood and then later at E Cleveland PO. Willis was one of the funniest people I know. So many times I find myself quoting something hilarious that came out of his mouth. He had an unassuming wise attitude about life. He was what you would call “Good People” and he was my buddy. Thank you for sharing him with the rest of us. 💔
