    Welcome, Sofia Mae Willis!

    ByWayne Willis December 27, 2023December 27, 2023

She comes from a long line of independent-minded, beautiful, and intelligent women, including her Mom and the women on her father’s side. Here are some ancestors who share her middle name, from her father’s side of the family. As soon as I can, I’ll add more slides to document her mother’s side!

My next-door neighbor Tod (pronounced ‘Todd’) was brushing his teeth.   Another man was finishing a…

    Genetic Legacy?

    ByWayne Willis November 27, 2022December 27, 2023

    Last Friday I had some surgery to relieve the symptoms of Dupuytren’s contracture. My father had the same operation late in his life, too.
