Willie was born May 8th, 1949, in Kansas City, MO to William and Antoinette (Cipolla) Cammisano. He was a caring and devoted father, grandfather, brother, and uncle who loved spending time with family and friends. Willie loved the outdoors as he was an avid golfer, fisherman, and hunter. He played a great bocce game and played on a regular team with his brother Jerry and close friends. His sense of humor, quick wit and charm brought joy to everyone around him - his very presence would simply light up a room. He owned “Wild Willie’s Discount Fireworks” for the past 25 years, before that he owned a check cashing business and worked for an electrical company. He was engaged to Fanny-Jo Sansone who he spent many wonderful years with. Willie exemplified his faith in God and was a devout Catholic in his final years.
