Floyd Vincent Willis, Jr. was born to Regina and Floyd Willis on January 13, 1981 in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Floyd was loving, caring, passionate, persistent, funny, and at times very silly. He loved deeply and unabashedly. He lit up the room with his smile and had an infectious energy. Floyd always had a joke or had something to say that would make you smile. He would help anybody in need and always wanted to make sure everyone was alright. He was friendly and never met a stranger.
Floyd was a hard worker who found his calling as a CNC Machinist. He took pride and pleasure in working with robots. Previous live streams can be found of him doing what he loved. Floyd never failed to appreciate the fun and positivity found in life’s smallest moments. He LOVED the Chargers. Even after the team went to Los Angeles, Floyd remained a loyal fan. This is truly an example of how he could find happiness and positivity in any situation.
Floyd gave his life to the Lord and was a faithful member of the New Bethel Baptist Church in San Diego. He attended worship services and bible study regularly. He also encouraged those around him to come to church and seek the Lord for themselves. Not even work kept him from learning more about the Lord. It was not uncommon to see Floyd log into service, and use his earbuds to listen in while on the job. He regularly expressed his love and gratitude for his pastor and his New Bethel Family.
On September 4, 2020, at the age of 39, Floyd went home to be with the Lord. We were blessed to have him in our lives.
Left to cherish his memory are parents Floyd and Regina Willis; sister Ariane Willis-Smith (Steve); daughters Aujonaye Brown and Kambria Willis; son Rashaun Willis (Vanneza), his grandson Aiden Brown; grandparents William Burton and Deloris Preston (Robert); best friend Kennethia Turner; along with a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, cousins and close friends.
One of the last things Floyd wanted us to know was that he loved all of us, be careful, and VOTE!
