Jocie always knew how to light up the room and definitely a party. Her crazy antics and infectious dolphin "call" will be missed and cherished forever by those who knew her best. Her love for her family and friends could not be denied. She was a feisty young woman who was always there for her family and the first to counsel her friends when in need. She was excited for her future as she planned to follow in her mom's footsteps and ultimately practice at Edgewood Chiropractic Center in Fort Wayne, IN.

Family and friends are welcome to a memorial service to be held at 5 PM Monday, December 7, 2020 at Abundant Life Church at 3301 East Coliseum Blvd. Fort Wayne, IN, 46805. Virtual viewing is available: Facebook.com/abundantlifefw
