JoAnn Fuller Lail, 72, of Fountain Inn, passed away on October 5, 2025. Born In Greenwood, SC, she was the daughter of Henry and Mamie Harrison Fuller. JoAnn dedicated her life to the creation of beautiful jewelry, a passion she discovered as a teenager. Over a remarkable 40-year career, she traveled across the country with her husband, participating in arts and crafts fairs and sharing her artistic talents with many. JoAnn's gentle spirit and genuine love for people touched countless lives. She had an extraordinary gift for connecting with others, never meeting a stranger. Her outgoing nature and vibrant personality made her a beloved figure in her community. JoAnn was not only an artist but also a woman of strong faith who lived her life with compassion and kindness. She is survived by her beloved husband of almost 40 years, Garfield Lail; and a daughter, Shannon Lail Brakefield. Along with her parents, she was preceded in death by brothers, Eddie Fuller and Henry Dale Fuller. A graveside service will be held on Thursday, October 9, 2025, at 3:00 PM at Bethlehem Cemetery.
