From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Chill Theodore Wills (July 18, 1903 in Seagoville, Texas – December 15, 1978) was an actor and singer in the Avalon Boys Quartet.
The distinctive voice of "Francis the Mule" was provided by veteran character actor Chill Wills, whose deep, rough vocal texture and Western twang was perfectly matched to delivering the lines of the cynical and sardonic mule. As was customary at the time, Wills never received billing for his vocal work, though he was featured prominently on-screen as blustery General Ben Kaye in the fourth entry, Francis Joins the Wacs.
On his passing in 1978 in Encino, California, Chill Wills was interred in the Grand View Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California.
