About Mozelle McClelland
Mozelle McClelland was born September 26, 1950, to Norma Jean and Morris Oliver Myers.
The family unit was part of the great migration of black families moving from Texas to Arizona. After being in Tucson, Arizona a while, the family united with Trinity Baptist Church and later made a move to South Tucson and changed their church affiliation to Grace Temple Baptist Church where Mozelle sang in the choir.
Mozelle attended Pueblo High School where she was a member of the Pep Squar as a Song Leader. After graduation from Pueblo, Mozelle attended the University of Arizona and worked for Mountain Bell Telephone Company for 25 years until retiring in 2000.
While with the telephone company, Mozelle transferred to a job in Phoenix, Arizona in 1977. Shortly after moving to Phoenix, she met Gerald McClelland, and they were soon married. Mozelle and Gerald had two children, Tramayne and Jenah.
Left with precious memories are her husband Gerald, their son Tramayne and their daughter Jenah. Also, brothers Eddie Myers, Morris Myers (Cynthia), and sisters Gloria Myers Doty (Morris), Mary Myers, and Phyllis Myers Smith, and many nieces, nephews, and in-laws.
Services will be Friday March 1, 2024 at time to be determined at The Word Church, 931 S Stapley Drive, Mesa, AZ 85204.
