Ursula Margaret Oxley Willis

John and Family,

I was so saddened to learn of Ursula's passing. My heart is with you as you mourn her loss and remember all that she gave to you and to so many. What a life, to have lived so fully. To give to others is to give to yourself.

It was with sadness that I learned of Ursula's passing. She was a warm and caring friend, and passionate about improving the lives of children with special needs. She became a mentor in my early work with children at Bixler House. I hold dear the memories of our collaboration and our friendship through the years. She will be missed. Olga and I extend our deep condolences to Ursula's family, her loving husband John, and her dear children, Janet and Doug and their families.

Ursula met with me and provided such wise advice on career issues when I first graduated from college and navigated my way in my first job. Today I work in higher ed providing academic and career advice to college students. I can only hope to provide my students with the wisdom Ursula shared with me. With love to John and the family, Gloria Lodge

Offering our deepest condolences at this difficult time.
