Joy Louise Jungles
Age 67, passed away peacefully on July 31, 2021 after a courageous battle following health complications.
Joy was raised and lived most of her life in Homer Township, Il. She was a graduate of Homer 33C Grade School, Lockport Township High School (Class of 1972), Joliet Junior College and North Central College. While living in the area she was employed at Lucent Technologies, Naperville, Il. She relocated to Arizona and was employed and retired from SEABHS Behavioral Health Services.
Joy is preceded in death by her father, Charles B. (Virginia) Jungles; her mother, Jacquie J. (Richard) Hosbach; her paternal grandparents, Robert and Myrl (White) Jungles; maternal grandparents, John McCann and Ethel McCann (Emil) Vonch; Joy is survived by her devoted and loving companion, Jose Sanchez; Maggie her dog and her precious 'kitties' of Huachuca City, Az.; Joy is also survived by her loving sister, Sue (Alvin) Green, Lockport, IL.; her loving brother, Tim (Lisa) Jungles, Magee, MS.; her dearly loved and adored nieces and nephew, Travanna Green, Whitney (Shaun) Jones, Jared Jungles, Ashley Jungles, Morgan (fiance' Luke Warren) Jungles; great nephew, Chase Jones and great niece Charli Esparza. Also surviving stepsiblings, Mary Kay Bernardo, James (Delaine) Menietti and Jeanne (Richard) Martinez and a host of family and friends.
Joy will be remembered by those that knew her as a loving, strong willed and determined woman. She took every task she was given straight on and never gave up! She enjoyed attending craft fairs, social events, traveling and Helldorado Days in Tombstone, Az. Joy's special passion was spending time with friends and the Golden Girls, but most importantly, visiting family and attending family events. Although Joy will no longer be in our lives, our lives will be forever filled with the 'joy' of our memories of her, she will be MISSED!! In lieu of flowers, memorials to a breast cancer organization of donor's choice in Joy's name would be greatly appreciated.
