Jo Ann McCullough

February 4, 2025

Jo Ann McCullough, age 74, passed away on February 3, 2025, in Pensacola, Florida. She was originally from Bay Minette, Alabama, but had lived in Enon, Florida, for the past 45 years. She will be remembered fondly by her family and friends for the love and kindness she shared throughout her life.

Mrs. McCullough cherished every moment spent with her grandchildren at Three Runs, she’d cook up chicken and rice in her trusty pressure cooker, making sure everyone was well-fed. There were always fun times at our camp at Boatyard, especially when we’d ride the golf cart a little too fast, leaving her worried but laughing. She was always busy making jelly and candy, and if you ever left her house hungry, it was truly your own fault because she’d insist about a hundred times that you eat something before you went. She had a special way of making everyone feel welcomed and loved, treating even strangers like family. Most of all, her love for her family was immense and unwavering, making her truly one of a kind. Now, heaven has gained the most precious angel, and she is no longer in pain.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Arthur C. and Josephine Merrill Jones; brothers, Glenn Jones and Larry Jones.

She is survived by her loving husband of 42 years, David Wayne McCullough of Enon, Florida; son, Jesse McCullough of Enon, Florida; daughter, Tami (Joe) Wright of Biloxi, Mississippi; sisters, Yvonne (Johnny) Harrison of Bay Minette, Alabama and Kathryn (Joe) White of Bay Minette, Alabama; grandchildren, Jessica McCullough and Jacob McCullough; great-grandchildren, Presley McCarty, Parker Burkett, and Ella McCullough.
