Obituary

Nancy Diane Wills, 76, of Jacksonville passed from this life on May 30, 2025. She was born October 10, 1948 in Kennett, Missouri to the late Bill and Derhonda (Beard) Storey. Mrs. Wills was an active member of St. Jude the Apostle Catholic Church where she was active with the Russian Mission and the Ladies of the Lions club. She loved to garden, dance and spend time outside on her boat, but was always happiest spending time with her family. She will always be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister and friend to many.

Diane dedicated 36 years to a career in banking, beginning at Unifirst in Jackson Mississippi. Over the years, she worked for several institutions including Twin City Bank, Mercantile Bank, and U.S. Bank in Jacksonville, Arkansas. She concluded her career at Bank of the Ozarks in Lonoke, Arkansas, where she served as an assistant manager. Her personality was infectious, friends and customers loved her. Her smile was radiant and a pleasure to see. Her love for animals was unconditional, especially dachshunds and yorkies. She was a blessing to family and all. She had a deep love for gardening and a special gift for nurturing even the most neglected plants back to life.

Left to continue her legacy are her loving and devoted husband of fifty-five years, Mike Winn Wills; children, Tony (Nancy) Marret, Mickey (Missy) Wills Jr., and Madison Wills all of Jacksonville; grandchildren, Ashley (Josh) Dennius, Brinden (NaCole) Wills, Connie (Wyatt) More, Austin (Gypsie) Cannon, Beckah Bowen, and Kayla (Brendan) Vasquez. Other survivors include siblings Robbie (Sue) Shrum of Missouri, Cheryl (Dave) Leggit of Texas; along with eleven great grandchildren and a host of extended family and many friends. Pallbearers are
