Jo Ann Murry, 86, went to be with her heavenly family on January 30, 2020.  She was born in Wichita Falls, Texas to Dovie Estelle Murry and Floyd Paskel Murry on October 16, 1933.

She was preceded in death by her parents and a brother, Floyd Wayne Murry.

She was on a continuous journey for knowledge, there was no avenue she did not explore.  This included attending UNM at Albuquerque, New Mexico, Lawson College at Mesa, Arizona, TVI at Albuquerque, New Mexico and the U of A at Little Rock, Arkansas (and a multitude of additional courses throughout her journey).  This took her from working at the Veterans Administration in Lubbock, Texas, to a time Holloman AFB (civilian personnel) where she had top secret clearance for her job requirements.  Her journey then lead her to what would be her career in computer programming and reporting.  She enjoyed working in the printing industry, from Sir Speedy Printing in Tempe, Arizona to ITT Courier in Tempe, Arizona until her final stop at Transportation Manufacturing Corp. (a division of Motor Coach Ind.)  There, she was medically retired.  So, in her retirement, she still could not sit still and completed training to be a manicurist in Texas.

She leaves behind Nita Murry Cooper and husband, Brad of Fayetteville, Arkansas; Channing Murry, Robert Murry and Rose Atchley of Ruidoso, New Mexico; and several cousins, nieces and nephews.
