Amanda was born on July 18, 1979 in Martinsville, VA to the late Elby Leon Willis and to Janie Romans Willis, who survives.
Amanda was a bright, bubbly, compassionate woman. She was a 1997 graduate of Bassett High School, pursued a Bachelor’s Degree in Radiology and went to work for Carilion and Lewis-Gale as a Radiology Technician. She loved be outdoors hiking, swimming, kayaking and fishing. Always stopped to carry a turtle across the street and save its life. Grew up in many different sports like gymnastics, soccer and volleyball. She was one of the best volleyball players around. She was always positive, even at her lowest she always saw the best in anyone and any situation. She persevered through so much, one of the strongest people I know. She was a woman of God, she was very proud of her faith and her devotion to him. She loved her daughters more than anything in this world and was always proud to show them off and brag. She loved hard and never gave up on anybody, ever! She found humor in every situation she was in, good or bad. She was always smiling and laughing. She loved the ocean, her jeep, tanning, dressing up and being beautiful in her own skin. She was such a free spirited soul.
In addition to her mother, Janie Romans Willis, she is survived by two daughters, Cora Barker and Peyleigh Willis, her partner, Steve Sigmon, her son-in-law, Brandon Turner, grandson, Hezekiah Wooden, two brothers, Matthew Willis and Daniel Willis.
