Nora Jolene DeJarneatt life was all about family. She was very independent and a very hard worker. She was a caregiver to her mother and was always on the go. Jo was strong and full of life. She was a mother that was there no matter what. She stood by her children through thick and thin. She was a second mother to her grand kids Jennifer Marley and Adam Martin. Jo was Jennifer and Adam’s angel and support system through everything until her stroke in 2015. Jolene’s stoke was very hard for her she went from independent to dependent. The Stroke took a toll on her but like a champ she still smiled, and she walked on her own again. Jo will always be remembered as a beautiful soul that was always there for family, the over gift giver at parties, the mother, grandmother, and great grandmother that did everything she could to help when she could, the grandmother that stepped in the role as mother when needed, a mother-in-law that would console the breaking heart of her daughter-in-law, the sister that loved her sister and bothers, nieces, nephews, great nieces, and nephews with all her heart. Nora Jolene DeJarneatt is flying high and free of all pain. She is with the Lord and a beautiful angel looking down on her whole family. We love you. You will never be forgotten!!!
Family will have a private celebration of life at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction of Johnson-Moore Funeral Home.
