IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Leah Maxine
"Mac" Willis
July 18, 1926 – November 21, 2011
Leah Maxine Willis, better known as Mac, met her appointment with the Lord on Monday, November 21, 2011 at a nursing home in Florala, Alabama. She was born in Scioto County, Ohio on July 18, 1926 to the late John and Edna (Martin) Daniels. Born and raised a Buckeye, Maxine lived life to the fullest. She married the love of her life, Darrell Gordon Willis on November 16, 1946 at Berean Baptist Church in Sciotoville. Mac worked at Williams Manufacturing Company for 27 years as a fancy stitcher, and then worked at East High School in their food service for 10 years before she retired. Her zest for life was contagious. Mac spent her spare time square dancing, supporting her son Dale's baseball pursuits, playing on "her" beautiful Ohio River, and in her later years being a Shawnee Golden Bear. Her final years were spent in Florala, Alabama near her son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Mac will be missed by all. Mac is survived by one son, Dale Willis (Devona) of Laurel Hill, FL; grandson, Brad Willis (Dana) of Slocomb, AL; granddaughter, Kelly Donofro (Troy) of Crestview, FL; five great-grandchildren, Roman, Jordan, Danni Anne, Jazzy, and Gianna; one sister, Mary Hutchinson of Sciotoville; several nieces and nephews. In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by her parents, one brother, Gerald Daniels, and two sisters, Geraldine Dunfee, and Hazel Chapman. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Wednesday, November 23, 2011 at Wolfe-Nelson Funeral Home in Sciotoville. Interment will be in Bennett Cemetery in Minford. Friends may call one hour prior to the service Wednesday at the funeral home. Online condolences may be left at www.WolfeNelsonFuneralHome.com.
