Joyce Hood-Jelliff Obituary

Joyce Gilburt Hood-Jelliff
Aug 10, 1936 - Mar 22, 2021.
Joyce Gilburt Hood-Jelliff left us on Monday, March 22, 2021 to join her husband, Bill, after a year-long battle with cancer. She was loved and will be greatly missed by her three children, six grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, twin sister, brother and many friends, who enjoyed her generous spirit. She had a wonderful gift, for both the sublime and the ridiculous, which she shared with those around her. Joyce had a marvelous and very special ability to make you laugh, question and adore her. She was a successful business woman and leaves a legacy of a fulfilled, but yet, unfinished life.
