She said: "I'm May, and I'm 110, and I've enjoyed every moment of it. I was born in 1910. Oh, I often think about death. Yes. I see myself at my funeral."
According to her, she was married to a man named Fred for 57 years, and it was a very happy marriage.
Willis, who is one of the oldest people in the United Kingdom, has never smoked or taken alcohol.
She said: "I live independently because I hate asking anybody to do anything. I've got a little garden on my table, so I spend a lot of time looking after them. I don't feel 110. I have never smoked in my life. I've never had a drink.
"I know as long as I live that I can keep as well as I am. But I'm ready to go at any time. Doesn't worry me."
Willis said she would like to be remembered as being a cheerful, happy and kind person.
She added: "At my funeral when everybody is on their way out, I want Gracie Fields singing Wish Me Luck As You Wave Me Goodbye. And that's it."
