Cloyce grew up in Union City, Oklahoma, where she attended the majority of her schooling until graduating. While in school she loved playing the piano, tap dancing, and playing basketball. After graduating high school, she moved to and worked in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where she met her future husband, Ronald Wade Tow. As a young couple, Cloyce and Ronnie loved many activities like square dancing and bowling. The couple later moved to Old Hickory, Tennessee.

Cloyce’s outgoing personality and her vibrant smile allowed her to make many wonderful friendships throughout her lifetime. Her faith in Jesus Christ proved most evident in her devout presence in her home church, Old Hickory Baptist Church.

Cloyce was an incredible golf player and, along with Ronnie, traveled to enjoy many wonderful courses all over the United States. A devoted wife, a loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and homemaker, Cloyce will be sorely missed, but each of us who knew her will forever hold her in our hearts.
