Obituary of Joy A. Brownrigg

Joy Arlene Brownrigg, age 86, of Ottawa, Kansas, passed away November 28, 2016, at Parkview Heights in Garnett, Kansas. She was born May 19, 1930, in Welda, Kansas, to Ernest R. “Ted” and Winifred (Comstock) Martin and grew up on a farm outside Welda. She graduated from Welda High School in 1946. Joy attended Allen County Community College, where she met Clyde Frazell, and they were married on May 7, 1948. They lived in Fresno, California, then returned to Iola. Their only child, Kevin Dale Frazell, was born in Iola on November 30, 1954. They were divorced in 1966. On May 16, 1969, Joy married C. D. “Dean” Brownrigg. They made their home in Ottawa, where they were active community members. Dean preceded her in death in 2006. Joy remained in their home until 2014, when she became a resident of Vintage Park Assisted Living of Ottawa. Over the course of her life Joy continued her college coursework, held several administrative, accounting and sales positions, and owned the Circle B Steakhouse in Welda. She was a long-time member of the Methodist Church at Welda, but in recent years attended First Southern Baptist of Ottawa. She was a 50-year member of Eastern Star and a member of the Elks Club of Ottawa. Family was always very important to her. She is survived by her son Kevin (Terri) Frazell of Minneapolis, Minnesota; four stepchildren, Rodger Brownrigg of Emporia, Kansas, Randy Brownrigg (Diane) of Ottawa, Kansas, Debbie Sylvester (Clyde) of Ottawa, Kansas and Rick Brownrigg of Tulsa, Oklahoma. She is also survived by grandchildren, Jason Frazell (Kirstin), Ben Frazell (Emily), Sarah Frazell (Tyler), Tanner Brownrigg (Kara), Travis Brownrigg (Katie), Jessica Triggs (Ryan), Kathryn Feightner (Nick), and Philip Sylvester (Sarah). She has nine great-grandchildren. Joy’s other passion was her lifetime of many dogs, cats, and horses. Special thanks to her sister-in-law, Mary Mace of Richmond, and friends Tim and Debbie Nelson of Pomona, for their devoted care of Joy over the past few years.
