Tommie Jo Eubanks, 72, went to her heavenly home on Friday, September 23, 2016 surrounded by her family due to a sudden illness.
A memorial service will be held at 3:00 PM, Sunday, September 25, 2016, at First Baptist Church in Deweyville. Officiating will be Reverend Damon Bickham.
Jo was born on February 24, 1944 in Colfax, Louisiana. She attended Little Cypress schools and grew up in Orange, Texas.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Cecil and Elsie Stewart; and husband, Bobby Eubanks.
Jo is survived by her loving companion, B.C. Smith; daughter, Lois Greer, of Las Vegas, NV; son, Ty Greer and wife Becky; sisters, Lois Hogden and husband Fred, and Onalee Greer; grandchildren, Caroline, Asa, Maccoy, Mason, Max, and Dustin; and great-grandchildren, Brooks, Caydence, and Ryder.
Jo loved the simpler things in life-flowers, animals, and enjoying the outdoors. As a result of her generous spirit and pleasant personality, she was loved by many. Her influence will forever remain in the lives of all who knew her. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate any contribution to either First Baptist Church in Deweyville at 644 TX-272 Spur, Deweyville, TX 77614, the Leukemia Research Foundation at 191 Waukegan Rd, Northfield, IL 60093, or local animal charities.

Tommie Jo was a very sweet girl and lady. In school, she was always there for everyone and always had a smile on her face. I knew her as a soft spoken person, even through our last class reunion that I attended. She will definitely be missed, but will definitely be welcomed in heaven. Rest in peace with our Lord.....
