Barbara Ann Willis

Barbara was a spirited, loving mother and grandmother who loved her time with her grandchildren, antique shopping and her poodle, Pepe.

She will be dearly missed and will always have a special place in the hearts of all who crossed her path.

Barbara was preceded in death by her husband, Clyde C. Willis; her parents, Mr. & Mrs. William Robert Morin, Jr.; and two sisters, Elinor Horn and BeBe Grantz.

She is survived by her two sons and their wives, Chris and Crystal Willis of China, Texas and Mark and Tracy Willis of Knoxville, Tennessee; five grandchildren, Macy, Sophia, Mason, Mark Stephen, and Reagan; and many nieces and nephews of whom she loved dearly.

Mrs. Willis will have a graveside service at 2:00 p.m., Wednesday, July 8, 2020, at Forest Park Lawndale Cemetery, 6900 Lawndale Drive, Houston, under the direction of Broussard’s, 1605 North Major Drive, Beaumont.
