Jo Ann Beck, 82, of Little Rock, Arkansas was born to the late, Fred and Fostine (Baxley) Kenzel, on Wednesday, November 20th, 1940, in Hensley, Arkansas and left this world on Wednesday, November 8th, 2023, in Little Rock, Arkansas, surrounded by love.

Superwoman! There is no better way to describe this woman. She was the best mother, mamaw, granny, and great-gram a person could have. Loving, kind, selfless, beautiful, faithful, captivating…. These are only a few of the words to describe her. She was an avid reader. She found peace in riding the lawn mower and enjoying the beauty of home. She loved her church family and found peace in God. She didn't mind sneaking off to the casino for a night or two either! Her favorite thing of all was her family.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Fred and Fostine Kenzel; husband, Robert Lee Beck; brother, Huey Kenzel; sister, Fredean Cotton; and her daughter, Diana Wooten.

She is survived by her three loving daughters, Regina Oates (Terry), Karen Spann (Don), and Robin Beck; seven grandchildren, Matt Oates, Ashley Craig, Joshua Wooten, Jacob Wooten, Justin Wooten, Sean Spann, and Stormey King; ten great grandchildren and many friends and family members that will miss her dearly.

A graveside service and her celebration of life will be held on Tuesday, November 14th, 2023, at 11:00 A.M. with the visitation one hour prior all held at Salem Cemetery in East End, Arkansas.
