Patricia Louise Willis died on Wednesday, September 29, 2021 at Merit Health Madison, in Canton, Mississippi. She succumbed to Covid after a two-month illness.

Trish was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on August 15, 1950. She grew up in Tylertown, Mississippi where she graduated from Tylertown High School and later from the University of Southern Mississippi. As a young adult Trish worked for a few years in her parent's hardware store where she had a gift shop called Tricia's Cupboard. Later she moved to Jackson, Mississippi where she worked for many years at the architect firm of Canizaro, Cawthon, Davis and was still working there up until the time of her death.

Growing up Trish was a member of Tylertown United Methodist Church and later joined Canton Christian Center. Trish and her friend, Cindy Harper, traveled to South Africa, Kenya, and India with the Carrier of His Light Ministries where she was a vital part of the ministry team.

Trish is survived by her three siblings: Suzanne Miyabe (Jim), Albert Willis (Becky), and Jo Anne McDaniel-Rawls (Artie), many nieces and nephews, extended family and friends who loved her dearly. Her parents, Charles and Dorothy Willis, preceded her in death.
