Joy Elaine Saint Neeley

Joy Elaine Neeley, born on March 6, 1947, passed away on August 22, 2026. Joy was a loving, passionate, and beautiful woman who loved her family deeply. Her family was her heart, and she treasured the time she spent with the people she loved. She had a personality all her own and a presence that will never be forgotten. Member of Littleville 1st Baptist Church. Joy loved the things that made her feel beautiful. She loved her jewelry, her makeup, and her favorite White Diamonds perfume. These little things were a part of who she was and will always bring special memories of her to those who loved her. Above all, Joy will be remembered for the love she had for her family. She gave her love freely and left behind memories that will be cherished for generations to come. We find comfort in imagining Joy running through the gates of Heaven and straight into the arms of the family who went before her. We can picture her smiling, surrounded by the people she loved, and tending to a big, beautiful garden. Although she is no longer with us, her love remains. She will live on through her family, the memories she created, and the love she gave so freely. Her name was Joy, and she truly was our joy. She was our joy in the moments we shared, in the memories she gave us, and in the love she left behind. Joy was loved deeply, will be missed dearly, and will never be forgotten. Until we meet again our beautiful angel! The visitation will be 12:00 – 2:00 p.m. Monday, August 24, 2026, at Spry Memorial Chapel.
