Willie Witherspoon

Willie Witherspoon was an elderly jazz musician who taught Bleeding Gums Murphy. He is blind, which has led to several inconveniences in his life. He believed himself to have been playing a saxophone for thirty years, but was actually simply playing an umbrella. Upon learning this, he asked why no one let him know. Murphy responded, "We all thought it was funny", an opinion which Witherspoon disagrees with.
He is most likely deceased since he only appeared in a flashback.
