Five children were born to this union, Michael Willis (deceased), Sydney Massey (Chuck), Johnny Willis (Debi), Gene Ann Tanner and Mary McMillen (Kent). Mom and Dad spent 61 years together until Dads passing in 2005. Mom spent her 95 years bringing joy and laughter to everyone she came into contact with.
