Emily Willis Obituary
In Loving Memory of Emily "MiMi" Lee-Anna Willis
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved daughter, sister, mother, and friend, Emily "MiMi" Lee-Anna Willis. Born on September 16, 1995, in Indianapolis, IN, Emily tragically left us on August 28, 2023, at the age of 27.
Emily was a vibrant soul who touched the lives of all those who knew her. She was a free spirit with a contagious smile and a heart full of love. Though she faced challenges in her education, she never let it dim her spirit. Emily's passion for life and her dedication to her family will always be remembered.
Emily's adoration for animals was unparalleled, and she had a special connection with her feline friends. Her love for cats was evident to all who knew her, and her furry companions brought her great joy.
Emily is survived by her loving parents, Timothy and Stacey Willis, along with her sisters, Kristin and Madison Willis, and her brother, Chris Henderson. She will also be forever cherished in the hearts of her daughter, Harmony Rose Brooks, and her extended family, including numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Emily "MiMi" Lee-Anna Willis will be laid to rest at 10612 E. Washington St., Indianapolis, IN 46229. She will forever remain in our memories as an extraordinary individual who brought love and light to all those fortunate enough to have crossed her path.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to an animal shelter or rescue organization in Emily's honor.
Emily, may you find eternal peace, and may your spirit continue to shine brightly in our hearts. You will be deeply missed by all.
