Elizabeth E. Joos

Age 92, of Spring Hill, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on Saturday, August 23, 2025. Daughter of the late Charles and Catherine Eyerman; beloved wife of 69+ years to the late Thomas M. Joos Sr.; loving mother of 5 children, Thomas Jr. (Karen), Gregory (Tricia), Mary Beth (Sharon), Jack (Linda), Kathryn Joos Tomkowski (Thomas); Proud grandma of 11, Thomas III (Shawna), Benjamin (Meredith), John, Jr. (Emily), Jarrod (Rayanda), Jacob, Sarah (Michael), Rebecca Joos, Lucy, Abby, Gaberiel Tomkowski and the late Jennifer Davis (survived by Jesse); Cherished Great-Grandma of 5, Delaney, Giuliana, Olivia, Clara, and Alee Joos; sister of the late Jean Brown, Dolores Burnett, Kathleen Gahagan, Charles Eyerman Jr, and Mary Carmody; She is also survived by many loving relatives and friends, including 10 Godchildren.

Elizabeth (Betty) not only dedicated herself to her family but she was a lifelong Registered Nurse and maintained her RN license for an incredible 71 years, including 2025. She contributed her time and concern as the neighborhood nurse for cuts, bruises, sprains, etc and for her family. Betty not only served her community but also raised her children and would help take care of her grandchildren. A devoted Catholic, Elizabeth found comfort in her faith, especially during frequent prayerful visits with Father Daniel Straughn. She often prayed for others and loved the Rosary and Holy Mass. She had been an active member of the Christian Mothers’ Organization and at St. Ambrose Parish. She was also known for her beautiful singing voice, bringing joy to many.

Even in her later years, Elizabeth was eager to learn and picked up the game of bridge at the age of 90. Her true love was for her family, who she cherished dearly. She was someone whom was loved by everyone she met and could talk to anyone, about anything, at any time.

Thank you to the special, caring staff and caregivers at Ridgecrest Senior Living of McCandless that gave Mom care throughout the past few years.
