Joanne Bigwarfe Obituary
Joanne is survived by her husband Brooks Joseph Bigwarfe, her son Konnor Joseph-Stark Bigwarfe, her daughter Kirstie Marie-Stark Bigwarfe, her parents Joseph and Stephanie Stark, her sister Susan (William) Barrett and several aunts, uncles, and her niece and nephews Raegan, Riley, and Rhece Barrett.
She is predeceased by her daughter Taylor Brooks Bigwarfe and her grandparents Elmer and Betty Stark and Fredrick and Frances Morse.
Joanne M. Bigwarfe was born on November 22, 1968 in Potsdam, NY to Joseph and Stephanie Morse Stark. She was a 1986 graduate of Potsdam Central School. She then received her Associates Degree from SUNY Canton and her Bachelor's Degree from SUNY Potsdam. Then while at St. Lawrence University she received a Master's Degree in Special Education and a Master's Degree in Administration. She graduated with high honors with all of her degrees.
Joanne held many jobs while in college. She worked at the P & C and the Super Duper grocery stores. She was a summer worker at Reynolds Metals in Massena and she worked for the ARC in Potsdam for 5 years. Joanne started her teaching career at Potsdam Central School where she taught for just a half year. She then taught at Malone Central School for a year and then at Parishville- Hopkinton Central School for the next 6 years. She then took the Special Education Administrator's job at Norwood-Norfolk Central School. She remained there until becoming the Principal of the school 2 years ago.
On August 17, 1991 at St. Mary's Church in Potsdam, NY she was married to Brooks Joseph Bigwarfe with Msgr. John Murphy celebrant.
Joanne loved to support anything her kids were involved in. She was very active in the community. She enjoyed supporting youth athletics, she was the president of K-Kids, was the president of the Potsdam Booster Club, she was a member of the Kiwanis Club in Norwood and she was also a member of the Delta Kappa Gamma (which is a female educators honor society.) Joanne was a fun loving and caring person who enjoyed life and will surely be missed by many. Online condolences can be sent @www.garnerfh.com.

Brooks and family.
There are no words to describe how sorry we are for your loss. Joanne was too young and full of life to be taken so soon. I believe that her greatest joy was trying to make others happy. It is said that death leaves a heartache that can't be healed and love leaves a memory that no one can steal, in that token Joanne left behind a lot of memories and she will be greatly missed.
June 4, 2012
I had the opportunity to get to know Joanne when she was my student teacher in Canton, during the "Summer to Get Ahead Program". At that time, Joanne was finishing her degree in special education. Several years later, we worked together through a NYS grant. So easily, we picked up where we had left off. Joanne was a warm, dedicated individual, always had a smile and was always without harsh words. My sympathy to her family, friends and to all touched by her presence. Joanne will be greatly missed.

Dear Bigwarfe Family,
We were shocked and deeply saddened by the loss of Joanne. She touched so many lives and brought smiles to so many faces. My children were truly blessed to have had the time with her that they did. I truly dont think at their young ages (6 and 7) that they will ever forget who they call "the best principal". I hope the beautiful memories of her will carry you all through this tough time.

Mrs. Bigwarfe was such a wonderful advocate against bullying and helped my daughter who was being bullied at NNCS. She was always kind, upbeat and helpful. My daughter Hannah adored her and is heartbroken at her passing. God bless all of her family that remains here, one day you will be reunited in God's glory. We are praying for you during this difficult time.

Joanne was such a wonderful, caring person. I had the pleasure of working with her every day. Each day she came in with her beautiful smile and positive attitude. She loved the children and they loved her. She made it a point to know each and every one of them by name and it was her goal to make sure that they received the best educational opportunities available. I will miss her terribly and am grateful that I had the honor to be part of her staff.

When I think about Joanne, I think about how she was so full of life, laughter and love-- it seems impossible that she is gone. I started my teaching career at Parishville in '99, the same year as Joanne. She was one of those special people who you could not help but gravitate towards. So much fun and absolutely hilarious are the words that come to mind when I think of Joanne. What I also remember is what an amazing mother she was, she was just a natural. I also remember how much she loved her children. It was the same way with her students. She was always there to help guide, nurture, and encourage her special education students, who were often the ones who disliked school the most. Joanne never gave up on them. Her loss leaves a huge hole, one that I know can't be replaced.
The last lesson Joanne has taught me is probably the greatest lesson and one I will never forget: hold your family close, hug them, laugh with them, love them because our time her on Earth is limited. Thank you Joanne for being a part of my life and for making it better.

My deepest sympathies to the Stark and Bigwarfe families on your loss. I went to college with Joanne at SUNY Canton 20+ years ago and we shared some classes together as well as Greek life. Every so often we would run into each other in town and reminisce for a few minutes. She had a lot of energy and a zest for life as long as I have known her. She had the most brilliant smile and was such a thoughtful and sincere person. She touched the lives of many and will be greatly missed.

All three of my children loved and adored her. She will be missed emensely... thoughts and prayers to all of you.
