William Shay Sisk, a 38-year-old man from Caddo Mills, Texas, tragically passed away on May 20, 2017. Born on May 3, 1979, in Fort Worth, Sisk grew up and attended schools in Weatherford. He was a loving father to his sons, Tanner and Leightdon, and was survived by his parents, Willy and Debra Sisk, as well as his grandmother, Virginia Kimbriel, and numerous other family members and friends.
The circumstances surrounding Sisk's death were grim. He was shot in his driveway on County Road 2172 in Caddo Mills. Curtis Doys Rust Jr., a 62-year-old local man, was arrested and charged with Sisk's murder. Rust faced trial and was sentenced to 55 years in prison for the crime. He claimed self-defense during the trial but was ultimately convicted and required to serve half of his sentence before being eligible for parole.
The case drew significant attention in the local community, and Rust's appeal was later denied, affirming his conviction. The tragic loss of William Shay Sisk left a lasting impact on his family and friends, who continue to remember him fondly.
