Jamaica. The resident magistrates court took 6 years to grant the adoption of Marvie to the Willises. By the time the court proceedings were completed. Marvie was 16 years old. and. by U.S. immigration law. ineligible to be considered the "child" of Mr. and Mrs. Willis. The sad story continues to haunt the Willises as they have continued to support Marvie through the years. To date. however. Marvie is still staying with the Willis friends in Jamaica. As I exert my best efforts to reunite the Willis family. I am urging that the Judiciary Committee consider my initiative in an expeditious manner. and lead the way for subsequent passage of the bill for the relief of Marvie Joy Willis.
