It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Willard Glen Sansoucie, Jr. who left this world peacefully on Thursday, November 6, 2025, at the age of 65. Willard was a true soul who touched the lives of many with his vibrant spirit and infectious passion for music. 

He was born on Saturday, April 30, 1960, to the late Willard Glen Evelyn Elizabeth (DeClue) Sansoucie, Sr. Willard had an unwavering love for playing the guitar, often filling the air with melodies that brought joy to those around him. Willard was not just a father to Frank and Amanda Sansoucie; he was also a friend and mentor. 

He is survived by his siblings—Donna Glore, Cindy King, and Brenda Pierce—along with his special brothers-in-laws, Chester "Eddie" Glore and Tracy Griffin, as well as his grandchildren and many nieces and nephews, all of whom cherish countless memories of shared laughter.

A collector, Willard took every opportunity to explore the great outdoors, his love for nature into his fascination with arrowhead hunting. Each arrowhead he found was a small treasure. As we reflect on Willard's life, we remember not just his passions but the warmth he radiated and the kindness he extended to others. His spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of those who remain.

Rest in peace, Willard. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Willard was preceded in death by his parents; son, Darrell Sansoucie, Sr.; sister, Mary Stewart, and niece, Laura Reagan.

Service dates and times are currently pending.
