DAUGHERTY, JOY RUOFF FUHS 1970
Daugherty, Joy Ruoff 61, passed away on October 6, 2013 in Stockton, Calif. with her family by her side.
Born on February 2, 1952 in Berea, Ohio to Vernet "Vern" and Margaret "Mickey" Ruoff. Joy and her family moved to Fullerton, Calif. during her Junior year of high school. She graduated from Fullerton Union High School in 1970 where she was a member of their famed dance team, The Featherettes. After high school she attended college at San Diego State University. A dedicated mother to three athletic boys, Joy had a permanent seat in the cheering section at countless football, basketball and lacrosse games. She also was deeply involved with Junior Aid of Stockton, The Haggin Museum, Children's Home of Stockton, and Mable Barron Elementary and Lincoln High School PTA.
Whether it was her kind, outgoing personality or her sunny, blonde hair, she stood out in even the most crowded of rooms. Blessed with good looks, a quick mind and a wicked sense of humour, she was a bright light in so many people's lives. Her life's passions included family, friends, reading and enjoying the Laguna Beach sunshine. She also had a fondness for French Country decor, Meg Ryan movies and Cantonese chicken from Dave Wong's.
Joy is survived by her mother, Mickey; three sons and their wives, Ryan and Lori, Kevin and Andrea, and Shaughn and Stefanie; grandson, Charlie; and Labradoodle, Dexter.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be given to your local American Cancer Society or Hospice of San Joaquin.
