Jean Ann Wylie

Jean Ann Noll Wylie, 85, formerly of Chesapeake, Ohio, passed away after a brief time of illness on Friday, October 16th, 2015 at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Plano, TX. At the time of her passing, Jean Ann was surrounded by loved ones, who had the great privilege of enjoying more of her company these last years, since she relocated to Frisco, Texas in the summer of 2010, shortly after losing her beloved husband of 61 years, Donald Ray Wylie. Jean Ann was born August 20th, 1930, to Hugh and Emma Brown Noll. She had three siblings-a sister, Betty Lou, who died as a child, and two older brothers who preceded her in death, Joseph (Laura) Noll , and Wallace "Jack" (Beulah) Noll, who is survived by his children Ronald Noll and Patty Noll Hopper, both of TX. She graduated a proud Panther from Chesapeake High School in May of 1948 and married Don that same month. She gave birth to their first child during his service with the U.S. Army in the Korean War. While raising her two children, Jean Ann worked, cared for aging family, and enjoyed attending swim meets for her kids, boating on the Ohio River, and involving herself in many activities that kept her in the company of friends. She retired twice from Chesapeake West Elementary, where she served mainly in the library-returning to work after she and Don moved briefly to a lovely retirement community in Arizona but quickly found themselves longing for home and friends. In her later years, Jean Ann was known to be an excellent Bridge player. She was influential in organizing her first high school class reunion in 1992, and then continued that tradition over the years, even as it dwindled to a small group of classmates meeting regularly at Bob Evans. Since her move to Texas, one of Jean Ann's greatest pursuits was staying in touch with people "back home." Even so, she made many new friends in Frisco, and remained very active. She drove herself to play Bridge the day before she was admitted to the hospital prior to her passing. Jean Ann is now reunited with many loved ones in the presence of her Savior. She is survived by her two children, Linda Jean (Wayne) Bowman of Celeste, Texas, and Richard Ray (Jill) Wylie of Plano, Texas; four grandchildren, Donald (Natalie) Bowman of Pittsbugh, PA, Cassie (Cory) Martin of Frisco, TX, Ashleigh (Cory) Gann of Montgomery, TX, and Alexis Wylie of Plano, TX; seven great-grandchildren, Alexandria Bowman, Jacob Bowman, Hayley Perez, Carli Martin, Corinna Martin, Isaiah Martin, and Benjamin Martin; one great-great-grandaughter, Ariel Eve Rupprecht; two sisters-in-law, Donna Lee (Robert) Sanford of Caldwell, OH, and Dorothy (William) Wylie of Burlington, OH; numerous nieces and nephews, and three very special cousins, Debra Brown Smith and Donna Brown Cremeans, both of Chesapeake, OH, and Glenda Lee Daniel Fletcher of St. Albans, WV. Jean Ann is also survived by her faithful and beloved Dachshund, Hector, who is now residing happily with her granddaughter, Lexi, enjoying a spacious backyard and the companionship of Jean's grand-dog, a friendly Cocker Spaniel named Buddy. A memorial service will be held 11 AM Friday, June 17, 2016, at Schneider-Griffin Funeral Home in Chesapeake followed by interment of Jean's ashes alongside her late husband at Rome-Proctorville Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 10 AM to 11 AM at the funeral home.
