What a blessing Mrs. Wills was to me. She was my Sunday School teacher at Garden City Baptist. She was a precious Godly lady. I am so glad I will see her again one day in Heaven.

I will always charish the years theat I had Mrs. Wills as my Sunday School Teacher at Garden City Baptist, When I moved back to Roanoke and she was there to relight the Dr. Pepper sign, what a life, what an example of God's love, a loving family and a Godly mother. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Dianne Shelton Waterman (Don and Barbara Shelton's Daughter.)

Awwww, Grandma Wills, the love and respect for you will never be gone from our lives. Living next door to you in Garden City for so long was truely a blessing. You always told me you didn't want to live to be 100, but you exceeded those expectations, as I always knew you would. Although not related, Grandma Wills was part of our family. She treated my children Cristy and Shannon as if they were her grandchildren. You are with your Savior now, and dancing among the angels, but will always...

The entire family and friends of Great Aunt Ruth are in our thoughts and prayers at this time. Though I did not know her well, I do remember what a sweet and open woman she was. I remember her coming over on several occasions to visit Nanny (J.Joseph M. Martin's wife) when I was younger. I know she is now joyous and free in the arms of her Saviour.

As a kid I used to go next door and get on her swing and we would talk for hours. She would just listen to this crazy little boy and laugh and would never get up intil I was done telling her what I was thinking. Even though we were not really related, I always called her Grandma Wills. Rest in peace "Grandma".
