We regretfully announce the passing of Willie Flagg, a remarkable father, husband, and friend, who entered into rest on February 19, 2026. Born on December 6, 1940, Willie was a beacon of warmth and kindness, an attribute that shone brightly in his interactions and relationships, leaving behind a legacy brimming with love.

Known for his bubbly personality and as a true stand-up individual, Willie had an unparalleled zest for life. His passion for fishing was only eclipsed by his love for frying and sharing his catch with family and friends, a testament to his generous spirit.

The son of the late Earnest and Mary Flagg, Willie is survived by his adoring wife, Mabel Flagg, with whom he shared numerous decades of laughter, joy, and companionship. He was a beacon of strength and love to his children, Susie White, Willie Flagg Jr., and Henry Flagg, all of whom carry forward his values and spirit in their lives.

Willie's heart was deeply rooted in his family, a cause he championed with utmost devotion. As the world mourns the loss of this extraordinary man, his spirit continues to live in the hearts of those who were privileged to know him. His life story inspires us to live with kindness and compassion, to be generous, and to value the simple pleasures of life, just as he did.

His departure is a summons for us to remember not just that he died, but that he lived; and that his life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. We mourn his loss deeply, but take comfort in knowing that he lived his life to its fullest, touching many lives along the way.
