Willa Faye Hurley Justice, 78, of Martinsville, Virginia, passed away Thursday, May 1, 2025, at her residence. She was born October 16, 1946, in West Virginia to the late Charles Edger Hurley and Elizabeth Louise Macklamore.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her sisters, Nancy Lou Hurley, Shirley Delores Tester, and Lucy Nell Estep; brothers, John Henry and Johnny Hurley.

Willa was employed for many years as a waitress with County Cookn’, where her warm smile and kind spirit let a lasting impression on those she served. She was of the Baptist faith and held her beliefs close at heart. A lady with many talents, Willa once worked as a cosmetologist and also found joy in sewing and cooking. She enjoyed traveling, especially to the beach and mountains. Willa never met a stranger; her free spirit and love for others gave her the ability to turn an enemy into a friend and spoke volumes of who she was. Her warmth, friendliness, and love will be greatly missed by all who were blessed enough to know her.

She is survived by her sons, Joseph Herrera and Gregory Lee Risaliti; sister, Mary Alice Estep; brothers, Charles Hurley (Cheryl) and Kenneth Hurley (Sandy); grandchildren, Tony Risaliti (Amber), Matthew Risaliti, Cody Risaliti, Chris Herrera (Harley), and Joseph Herrera; great-grandchildren, John Risaliti, Eric Herrera, Lillie Risaliti and BAM Risaliti; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and friends.

Service will be held at a later date.
