Jo Lynn was born February 25, 1952 to the late Bill Marshall and Mary Lou Tigert. She was a lifelong resident of the Wichita Falls area, graduating from Electra High School in 1970 and later completing nursing school at Bethania School of Nursing. After nursing school, she went to work in the ER at Wichita Falls General Hospital and then was later employed at Wilson Family Planning for over 30 years until her retirement.
Jo Lynn married Gary Broyles on May 7th, 1988 at Lucy Park in Wichita Falls. They were happily married for over 37 years until her passing.
There is no doubt that Jo Lynn’s passion was for her family. She cheered on her children and grandchildren (and their friends) at thousands of football, baseball, and basketball games. Jo Lynn attended dance recitals, birthday parties, grandparent days, jiu jitsu practices, swim lessons, graduations, weddings, fishing trips, vacations, etc. If someone she loved was participating, she was going to be there. She even once kept a forward deployed US Army battalion supplied with homemade cookies for an entire winter while her son was serving overseas. She loved going to and was a regular at family reunions with extended family in Ohio. Jo Lynn made family holiday events so fun and special for her grandchildren. She also dearly loved her dogs Sadie, Pete, Puddles, and Charlie.
Along with her parents, Jo Lynn was preceded in death by her beloved grandparents Houston and Bessie Tigert, a brother Barry Marshall, a son Scott Broyles and cousin Judy Rinehart.
Jo Lynn is survived by her husband Gary, “second mom” Elva Pridemore Marshall; brother Randy Marshall; daughter, Buffie Gravaas and husband Lars; son, Brad Kundracik and wife Amanda; Grandchildren, Bailey Broyles and fiancée Ashley Anderson, Christoffer Gravaas, Pernille Gravaas, Addison Kundracik, Brooke Kundracik, and Case Kundracik.
Jo Lynn was always known for her great sense of humor, infectious laugh, caring heart and her courage to speak up. Her friends and family are thankful to have known such a woman. By all that knew her, she will be forever missed.
