Barbara JoAnne (Morris) Willis

January 13, 1946 ~ October 1, 2023

 Barbara JoAnne Willis, 77, of Marietta, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Sunday, October 1, 2023, at her home. She began this life on January 13, 1946, the daughter of Chester and Nelle (Hodges) Morris.

JoAnne attended schools in Amarillo, Texas and later went to beauty school in Plainview, Texas. She was a beautician for 20 years until she decided hairstyling was no longer for her. She then worked for 15 years in a hardware store. On May 8, 1972, she married Jerry Willis while in Mexico. The two spent more than 51 married years together. In her spare time, JoAnne loved doing arts and crafts and spent countless hours working outside in the yard.

Preceding her in death were her parents; two brothers, Harmon Bagley and Gene Bagley; and two sisters, Peggy Ezell and Betty Garrison.

Those left to cherish JoAnne's memory are her husband, Jerry Willis of the home; son, Joe Willis of Ardmore; daughters, Dana Vinyard of Marietta, Elizabeth Mayfield of Marietta, and Debbie Coley of Wilson; seven grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and a sister, Bobbie Busby of Amarillo.

A private family service will be held at a later date.
