A graveside service will be held at two o'clock in the afternoon on Wednesday, October 20, 2010 on what would have been Jo Ann and Terry's 43rd wedding anniversary. Service will be held at the Rose Garden at Memory Lane with Rev. Larimore K. Wickett officiating. Jo Ann was born on December 9, 1950 in Carlsbad to J.O. and Mary Ann (Howell) Price. She valiantly fought two battles with breast cancer before succumbing to the second one. She spent 40 years in banking in the Silver City area and was a board member of the GRMC Foundation. She loved sewing, gardening, camping, fishing, shooting skeet and just being in the great outdoors. Jo Ann enjoyed being with family, especially her grandkids. She found special joy in having lunch and spending time with her close friends. She will be greatly missed. She is survived by 3 daughters, Melanie Brown husband Alex of Silver City, Misty Manelos husband Aaron of Glenwood, and Lea Ann Bock of Silver City; brother, Albert Price of Loving, NM; 4 grandchildren, Lydia Melendrez husband Jeremy, Jordan Lemme, Katie Brown, and Joshua Gutierrez; 2 great-grandchildren, Timothy Brown and Alexis Melendrez; and many special friends she held dear to her heart.
