March 28, 1963 – July 19, 2024

MOOREVILLE – Paula Jean Stilwell, 61, died peacefully surrounded by her family on Friday, July 19, 2024, at Sanctuary Hospice House in Tupelo. She was born March 28, 1963, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa to Nyoka Ricks and Claude Stilwell. She worked as a nail technician for most of her life then worked for her family’s business. She enjoyed camping, drinking wine, and spending time with her children and grandchildren. She was a diehard 49ers fan. She loved hard and fought even harder for what she believed in. She was the most incredible mom. Even more a Gammy to eight grandchildren. She loved cooking for her family more than anything in the world. She also loved her dog, Bowie.

A visitation will be held from 5 PM to 6 PM on Thursday, July 25, 2024, at Holland Funeral Directors in Tupelo. A private family-only service will be held afterward. Holland Funeral Directors is honored to serve their friends.

Survivors include her father, Claude Stilwell (Valerie); her brother and sister-in-law, Mark and Lisa Stilwell; her children, George and Linzie Fishwick, Blasia and Mike Brown, Taylor and Justin Harris; and her grandchildren, Kinsley, Mikah, Lennon, Mary Blake, Harper, Violet, Hayes, and Cash.
