Willis Russell Gibson  (February 25, 1921 – January 28, 2016)

Willis Russell Gibson was an inspiration to all Smilemakers. For years, Toys for God’s Kids trucked supplies to his home and picked up completed goods. While living in Colorado at Heather Garden, he single-handedly drilled wheels for all our cars. The other Smilemakers had trouble keeping up with his wheel production. Russ and his daughters also assembled cars in his home workshop.

Russ’s tireless efforts brought joy to thousands and thousands of kids. He will be greatly missed.
