Obituary

Mark J. Wills, age 57, of Grayson, GA, and formerly of Fall River, passed away on Wednesday, October 7, 2026. Born in Fall River, Mark was the son of the late Charles J. Wills and the late Marjorie E. (Vieira) Wills.

Mark earned his bachelor's degree from Stonehill College, which later awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters (L.H.D.) for his extraordinary contributions to society. He began his career as a store manager for the former Lechters Housewares in Downtown Crossing, Boston, and went on to serve as Southern Regional Vice President for Bath & Body Works, based in New Orleans, LA. When his mother became ill, Mark accepted a role with Verizon Wireless, and he later joined the United States Postal Service.

Mark was involved with many charities and was a parishioner of St. Lawrence Catholic Church in Lawrenceville, GA. He loved to travel and treasured time spent with his family and friends. Mark bravely fought esophageal and gastric cancers and was in remission at the time of his passing.

Mark is survived by his beloved partner of 17 years, Tommy Lacy of Austin, TX; his brothers, Kyle Wills of Grayson, GA, and Charles Wills of New Jersey; his sister-in-law, Sylvie Wills, and her daughter, his niece, Savannah Marjorie Wills of Lawrence, MA; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He was predeceased by his brother, Gregory Wills, in 2022.

Visitation will be held on Monday, October 26, 2026, from 8:00 to 9:30 A.M. at the Manuel Rogers Funeral Home, 1521 N. Main St., Fall River, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10:00 A.M. at St. Joseph's Church. Interment will follow at St. Patrick's Cemetery, Fall River.
