JoAnn Jarrett Smith, 73, of Randleman passed away Tuesday, May 13, 2025 at Randolph Hospice House in Asheboro. She was born March 13, 1952 in Randolph Co. to James Kenneth Jarrett and Helen Gertrude Routh Jarrett.

JoAnn was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. She was married for 47 years to her husband, Tim, and together raised three wonderful children. She loved her flower garden, watching the birds, and being home with her family – watching Nascar. JoAnn was a skilled sewer and loved making quilts. A hard worker, she lived by the belief that family was always first and wanted her kids to have more than she did. She will be missed by those she leaves behind.
