Willis Charles Huffman

Willis Charles Huffman, 88, of Sherwood passed away February 13, 2023. He was born November 13, 1934 in Amboy, AR to the late Whitfield Charles Huffman and the late Iva Mae Magnus Huffman.

Willis served in the Army National Guard forty-two years and retired as a Sergeant Major. He loved his family and friends and he lived with an open door policy – all were welcome anytime. He was a gifted “fix-it” man who was always willing to lend a helping hand and to share whatever he had with others. He was also a quiet man who lived a simple lifestyle investing in others by listening, offering advice when asked, and teaching others what he knew with hands-on applications.

He was a member of Fellowship North Bible Church and had accepted Jesus as his Savior at a young age. He lived his life loving God first, others second, and himself third. Willis was preceded in death by his wife, the mother of his children, Loeta Knight Huffman; their infant daughter, Tracy Huffman; a granddaughter, Angela Dunaway; and his sisters: Cora Lee Kemp and Betty Jean Houston.

Survivors include his second wife, Joan Huffman; daughters: Rhonda Bentley (Steve) and Sharon Bryant (Kenny); grandsons: Kevin Bentley, Jack Charles Garrison, and Eric Charles Bentley (Kaylie); great-grandchildren: Bentley Davis, Amelia Davis and Rory Charles Bentley; and his brother Mickey Huffman (Robbie).
