Shirley Willis, Beloved Mother and Grandmother, Passes Away After Battle with Lung Cancer in Austin, TX
Shirley Willis, a devoted mother and grandmother, passed away after a brave and long battle with stage 4 lung cancer. She was surrounded by her loving family at the time of her death.
Shirley's diagnosis, which came over a year ago, brought challenges that she faced with strength and resilience. While undergoing chemotherapy, doctors eventually determined that further treatments were not effective, and she was given approximately six months to live. In recent weeks, her condition worsened, and her family was by her side as they made the difficult decision to focus on comfort and care.
Shirley's daughter Kristen and her husband, Jordan, were steadfast in their commitment to caring for her during these final weeks. Jordan, who has a more flexible work schedule, supported his wife and cared for Shirley while balancing his jobs as a locksmith and DoorDash driver.
A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to assist with funeral expenses and provide financial support for the family as they navigate these difficult times. The Willis family expressed heartfelt thanks to all who have already offered their support and generosity.
The community mourns the loss of Shirley, and details regarding the funeral and memorial services will be announced in the coming days.
