Joanne created a home filled with love, warmth and devotion. She was an active member of the reunion committee of Palmyra High School and a member of the Eastern Star. In her retirement years, she and Ed moved to Wrightstown, PA where they spent time creating lasting memories. Together they enjoyed the outdoors, flea marketing, and time with family and friends.

Joanne had a beautiful voice and loved to sing. You could always count on her to belt out oldies and show tunes never missing a note. She especially enjoyed listening to Josh Groban, going to concerts and Broadway shows. She enjoyed crafting, baking, shopping, spending time at the Jersey shore, and dancing the afternoons away. She cherished time spent with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She held a special place in her heart for her two nieces, Jo and Patty and good friend Mike. Joanne truly left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
