“Tommy is a very unassuming man and he is loyal to a fault,”
said Doug MacMillan, Administrator, Facilities Management. “He would
do anything for this organization. He will stay as long as it takes to
get a job done and will not walk away from anything. He appreciates everything
he has and is just a genuinely nice guy. A prototype employee and I wish
I had 50 of him.”
As a Maintenance Technician III, Willis has been employed by CVMC for four
years. “I enjoy the people and the atmosphere [at CVMC],”
Willis said. “There is something different everyday, and I get to
see miracles.”
Willis is a native of Lincolnton, N.C. and he looks forward to celebrating
his 30th Wedding Anniversary with wife, Lisa, in September.
