March 09, 1937 - January 18, 2026

Joanne C. Iannelli, age 88, passed away on January 18, 2026. Born on March 9, 1937, in Pittsburgh, PA, Joanne lived a vibrant life filled with love and adventure. She was the beloved wife of Emilio Iannelli for 53 wonderful years. Joanne was a dedicated sister-in-law to Cathy Iannelli, and Norma Iannelli, and many other late brothers and sisters-in-law, and will be remembered fondly by many nieces, nephews, and loving friends.

Joanne grew up in a large family including her late siblings: CeCe (Wally) Cushing, John (Elaine) McCallum, Richard McCallum, Margaret (Gus) Costa, Mary (Rudy) Lamagna, Arlene McCallum, and Judy (Rich, Herman) Boehm.

Throughout her early career, Joanne made a significant impact in the stock brokerage industry in Pittsburgh. Alongside Emilio, she embraced the joy of travel, exploring new places and creating lasting memories.

A Celebration of Life will be planned in Pittsburgh during the summer of 2026, where family and friends will gather to honor Joanne's remarkable life and legacy.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA), PO Box 7410354 Chicago, IL 60674-0354, reflecting Joanne's generous spirit and commitment to helping others.

Joanne will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
