Obituary:
Christopher Paul Willrett, age 36, son of Lisa (Cooley) Jordan and Nat Scott was born February 13, 1985, in West Plains, MO. He passed away September 6, 2021 in Van Buren, MO.
Chris is preceded in death by his grandfathers, Bill Cooley and Bill Scott, his grandparents, Elmer, and Ellen Willrett, and by his great grandparents.
He is survived by his wife Cassandra Willrett; his mother and stepfather, Lisa, and John Jordan; his father, Nat Scott; grandmothers, Jeanie Cooley and Berneda Scott; his two children, Sheldon, and Shelby Starr; two sisters, Mackenzie Scott, and Jennifer Jokerst (Jared); one granddaughter, Nezzie, and several nephews and niece.
Chris grew up in Summersville, MO and graduated from Houston High School 2004.
He was recently married to Cassandra Boyle on June 12, 2021, in Birch Tree, MO.
Chris was always a man of many trades, but most recently had been working as a fabricator. When he wasn’t working, he spent his time outdoors doing the things he loved. Whether that be working in his garden, fishing, hunting, or just simply sitting on the riverbank with his dog Johnny Cash. Chris was a man with a huge heart who loved his family and children endlessly. He was the type of person who was always willing to help someone in need. Even if that meant giving his last dollar or the clothes off his back. Chris never failed to lighten any mood with his sense of humor and goofy smile. He will be greatly missed by everyone who got the pleasure to know him.
Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8
1. To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4. A time to weep; and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5. A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6. A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7. A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8. A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
