Cindy Kaye Shirley Wills, age 67 of Talladega formerly of Buchanan, passed away on Wednesday, November 6, 2024. Born in Douglasville on October 17, 1957, she was the daughter of the late Margie Walker Shirley and the late Thomas Roger Shirley. In addition to her parents, Cindy is preceded in death by her son, Elijah Beau Thompson.

Always fun-loving and in charge, Cindy was voted president and wittiest of her Haralson County High School class of 1975.  Her humor could make any ordinary day fun and exciting. Cindy's love of cooking culminated with owning and operating the Chatterbox Cafe', a Buchanan icon, for more than 13 years. Along with her cooking, Cindy also found enjoyment in meeting people and talking with them.  She had a gift of making everyone around her feel special.  In her spare time, she enjoyed reading.  However, Cindy's passion was loving on her family, and she will be dearly missed by all who loved her.

Left to cherish her memories are her husband, Randy Wills of Talladega; her step children, Jennifer Lynn (Mike) Meade of Texas and Joshua Randall Wills of Texas; her sister, Lesa Shirley (Matt) Sheffield of Carrollton; her brother, Ricky (Regina) Shirley of Buchanan; her precious grandchildren, Broly Jase Thompson and his mother, Stephanie Anne Ricks of Bremen, Jackson Daniel Keller of Texas and Kealei Green of Felton; her nieces and nephews, Tara (Nick) Chapman, Darron (Kristen) Shirley, Ashton (Zach) Purser, Will (Madison) Sheffield and Ivie (Jake) Langley; a host of great nieces and nephews and other relatives and friends.
