Ellen Joyce Wilson Wood of Franklinton, passed away on Monday, April 13, 2015 at Transitions LifeCare Hospice Home of Raleigh, NC.
Joyce was born on December 1, 1937 in Nash County, NC, a daughter of the late Joshua and Ida Wilson. She married the love of her life, Joe Wood, in September of 1954 and just last year celebrated 60 years of marriage.
Joyce was a gentle soul, a wonderful cook, a devoted wife, a loving Mama to her three girls and a precious "Ma Ma" to her three grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. She loved a good laugh, her four-legged grandson (Coffee), a cold Diet Coke, cheese puffs, Alice's pies, and her soap operas, but most of all she loved her family and particularly her Joe. She devoted her life to taking care of them as long as her health allowed.
Joyce was preceded in death by her parents; four brothers, William Garry Wilson, Willie Jay Wilson, Billy Ray Wilson, and Willis Wilson; her parents-in-law, Ernest and Betty Wood; brothers-in-law, Thurman Wood, Cleotha Wood, Bob Wood, Doug Wood, and Wayne Wood; sisters-in-law, Christine Bell, Elsa Braswell, Josie Wood, and Faye Wood.
