JoBeth was born at the Naval Hospital in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina and lived in Tallahassee most of her adult life. JoBeth loved music and the people who wrote her favorites. Funny, clever, intelligent, and most of all courageous, she loved her family and friends. JoBeth’s friendships encompassed all aspects of her life, and each was special to her. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
