Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry to hear of Joann's passing. My family and I are her neighbors. She was always very kind to our children. My kids used to love seeing her ride on her golf cart and play with her beloved dog, Tracy. I'm so very sorry for your loss. She told us many stories of her husband over the years. May she finally be reunited with him.

I am very sad to hear of her passing. She hired me to teach at Conant and guided me with her strength and leadership through many years of my early teaching days. Jo was an inspiration to me and other staff at Conant.

My condolences to JoAnn's family,

I loved her!! I was thinking of her last week and tried googling her name. I had her for 2 years as my sewing teacher. She helped me turn myself around and nominated me for the Cougar Wall of Pride for my sewing. I have missed her all these years and thought of her quite often. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

I'm so sorry to hear of Mrs. Icenogle's passing, but Bill and Julie Perry's remembrance makes clear that she knew how to live life and did so until the end! I was in Mrs. Icenogle's Sewing 2 class back in the 80s. I don't recall the details of how I was allowed to take a Sewing 2 class, having never taken any of the other home economics or sewing classes, but I know I went into that class not knowing the first thing about using a sewing machine or following a pattern, and under Mrs....

I LOVED having Mrs. Icenogle for a teacher in the 80s! I took almost every sewing and design class offered, and Mrs. Icenogle was so knowledgeable and inspirational in helping me direct my efforts in whatever way I was inspired to go with my projects and beyond. I have been lucky enough to follow my passion, in retail management in different fabric stores and others for most of my life, and I now own my quilt shop in Boscobel, Wisconsin. When I am teaching someone to sew, giving tips, or...

Like many teachers, she touched the future. I have thought of her often over the years when attempting difficult sewing projects. Most recently, I have shared skills she taught me with my granddaughter. My condolences to her family and friends.

I had Mrs Icenogle for several sewing classes at Conant High School. She was an excellent teacher who balanced kindness with an expectation of excellence. I am sad I never connected with her post-high school just to say thank you for imparting upon me some life skills that I continue to use today. Rest In Peace, Mrs. Icenogle.
