Billie Jo Bell, 54, Taylor County, KY native

Billie Jo Bell, age 54, passed away peacefully at her home on October 21, 2024. Born on October 18th, 1970 in Campbellsville, KY, she was the cherished daughter of Billy Perkins and the late Jolene McDaniel.

Her love for life was evident in her passion for traveling, especially to the beach. Billie Jo's optimism and determination even during difficult times was an inspiration to many. Her love for animals was matched only by her deep devotion to her family. Billie Jo was a devoted Christian and a proud member of Mt. Roberts Baptist Church. For over a decade, Billie Jo excelled as a Territory Sales Manager at JTI, where her dedication and professionalism left a lasting impact in the Kentucky market.


She is survived by her loving husband, Keith Bell; her daughter, Brittanie (Josh) Landis of Campbellsville; and her beloved grandchildren, Will, Knox, and Axton Landis. Billie Jo is also survived by her parents, Billy (Sharon) Perkins of Greensburg and Steve McDaniel of Campbellsville; her sister, Lesley Sneed of Versailles; and her brothers, Greg (Shannon) Buckles of Greensburg, John (Jenna) Perkins of Greensburg, and Bryce (Becky) McDaniel of Georgetown. She leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws, and friends who will miss her dearly.

Billie Jo was preceded in death by her mother, Jolene McDaniel, and her brother, Michael Perkins.

A celebration of Billie Jo's life will be held on October 26 at Auberry Funeral Home from 5-8pmET. Friends and family are invited to gather and share their memories of a remarkable woman who touched the lives of so many.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in Billie Jo's honor to Pancan to help fund pancreatic cancer research or the Mt. Robert's Baptist Church youth fund and can be made at the funeral home.
