W Obit Willis Alma

Alma Lon Willis On Nov 20, you may have heard a hustle and bustle as Alma Lon Willis, 61, ascended into heaven butt naked and barefoot just like he liked it. It has not been determined if he died of sheer stubbornness, but friends and family believe his continual lack of clothing played a contributing factor. A viewing will be held from 6-8 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 27, at Silver Creek Mortuary. A graveside service will be held in his honor at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 28, at the Reed S. Hatch Memorial Cemetery. All are welcomed. We ask that you honor him by wearing your most comfortable shorts and flip flops. Of course, a good baseball hat and a pair of sunglasses never hurt either. A heart felt thank you from our family to yours, for all the kind words, gestures, love and support. He was born to Lloyd and Mildred Willis on Oct. 5, 1959, in the McNary General Hospital.
