Joy Elizabeth Bramley
Joy Elizabeth Bramley (nee Rundt), 96, of Huntsburg Township, passed away peacefully Tuesday evening, Feb. 27, 2024, at University Hospitals Geauga Medical Center while surrounded by her family.
She was born in Bainbridge Township on Sept. 16, 1927, to the late Leslie and Amy (nee Salasky) Rundt. Joy is once again reunited with her loving husband, James Clinton Bramley, who has been waiting for her in Heaven since Jan. 2, 1990.
Joy was a housewife and stay-at-home mom. She always told great stories of her life growing up on a farm during the Depression. Joy worked at a young age to help her family.
She was talented at cooking, crocheting, sewing for her daughters, drawing, and just being a fun grandma to her grandkids.
Joy had a sweet soul but could be stubborn at times, caring and concerned, she would always help where she could.
She will be greatly missed by her daughters Barb Warren, Colleen (Richard) Lockhart, Lynnette (John Costa) Bramley; grandchildren, Michelle Hering, Jeff (Erika) Lockhart, Emily (Jay) Gainer, and Marty (Casey) McCaffrey; great-grandchildren, Jack and Ann Lockhart, Rose Gainer, Natalie and Colin Hering; brother Leslie Rundt; and many friends.
Joy is preceded in death by her husband, James; parents; daughter Diane Bramley; grandson Robert Warren; brother Edward (Alma) Rundt; and sisters, Doris (Lloyd) Sawyer and Helen (Lloyd) Moore.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Joy always loved hearing what was happening at the Huntsburg Congregational Church, where she was a longtime member. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in her name are requested to be made to the church at P.O. Box 307, Huntsburg, OH 44046. Arrangements have been entrusted to Best Funeral Home, 15809 Madison Road, Middlefield, 440-632-0818. Online condolences may be sent at www.bestfunerals.com.
