July 31, 1956 – April 30, 2016

This piece represents all the things he loved. The camo is for his love of hunting and outdoors. The badge is for his years as a California Highway Patrol Officer. He was called Big Papa by his grandchildren and step-daughter Binky. The phrase “Where there’s a Willis there’s a way” because there wasn’t a problem he couldn’t solve given time. Finally his picture, it was taken the day he married the love of his life, Mary, he just couldn’t stop smiling.
