Jacy Welsh Ceccarelli
of Savannah Ohio, passed away surrounded by her family on October 27, 2026 after a courageous battle with cancer.
Born on May 13, 1941, in Lodi, Ohio, She was the youngest child of Floyd and Elizabeth Lucile (nee Miller) Welsh. She attended Savannah High School, was a majorette and cheerleader, and a member of the Future Homemakers of America.
Jacy enjoyed many years as director of the Savannah community plays as well as helping organize dances and other celebrations. She was an avid sewer, making custom costumes, formals, alterations, and just this year completed French blinds for her living room. Jacy also worked as a decorator, hanging wallpaper for new as well as remodeled homes. She had a flare for color and everyone who knew her knew how she loved the color red and animal prints. She loved crocheting fancy doilies and working crossword puzzles. Jacy was a vibrant story teller, enjoyed writing, and completed several books that await publication. She attended Savannah United Methodist Church.
She is survived by her sons Jeff (Holly) Farr, Ross (Karen) Farr, and Tyrone Timko; grandchildren Jacob, Brandon, Kyver, Heather, Reanna, and Amanda, and six great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband Franco Ceccarelli, her parents, and siblings Janice, Jimmie, June, and Joy.
