Created July 20th, 2026

Please help Lt. Willis from the Metro Nashville Police Dept. and his family in funding assistance around the house while he undergoes treatment for cancer, which has unfortunately returned and spread. 

In June 2025, Lt. Willis was diagnosed with stage 3 rectal cancer. He battled his way through the diagnosis while continuing everyday duties and tasks. In March 2026, doctors declared him in remission and no surgery was recommended as there has been a complete pathological response. 

At his first follow-up appointment in June 2026, Lt. Willis was informed the cancer was back; a lymph node near the initial area was affected. Further imaging revealed the cancer had spread to various distant organ types within his body--stage 4C. Due to severe pain caused by the cancer metastasizing into various muscle groups, Lt. Willis has been unable to work through this hardship. Sick time is running out and a decision regarding a medical pension (and the financial constraints and hardships thereof) must soon be made.

The Willis family has shared their immense gratitude for all assistance provided.
