JoNell and Maurice had three children together and lived on the East Coast. They moved to Louisiana in 1974, where they spent the rest of their lives. JoNell loved to dance, golf, play bridge and enjoy life. She was always the life of the party. Her gullible nature and courage always got her into trouble but created memories that will last forever in the hearts of those who knew her. JoNell''s sense of humor and unconditional love will be dearly missed.

Memorial contributions can be made in JoNell''s name to St. Jude''s Children''s Hospital.
