JoAnn was such a selfless and bright spirit. We were lucky to have her become part of our family and will have a void from her passing. She introduced our southern family to the term uff da, she didn’t know how to feed a group without making enough for an army, she was a dynamo that could run circles around a 5 year old and she always faced every day with a smile. That’s a pretty darn good legacy to leave behind.
We love you and will miss you JoAnn…. Kim, Charlie and Taylor
JoAnn was always one of my favorite “moms”. She was always so kind and so loving. My favorite memory of JoAnn is how she sat and brushed all the snarls out of my hair (without pulling) after we rode in the back of a pick up truck for one of Nickys birthday parties. She always had a smile!
My love and prayers to her family from the Heuring family!
Many years ago this wonderful woman smiled at me from across the room and my world would never again be the same.
JoAnn gave me so many wonderful years, and I will always love her and miss her infectious laugh and ready smile. The world will be poorer for her passing and my world will once again never be the same.
Wow!!! What a GREAT lady. Spent thousands of hours at her house. Laughing and having fun as kids. Best 2nd mom and always welcomed me into her home. From 3-wheeler rides to whatever we wanted to do. She was always willing and ready. JoAnn – you will truly be missed!!! Much love to family and friends!!!
To the Peterson family and friends, I never met JoAnn but I work with her daughter Nicole and my heart is saddened to learn of her passing. May God bless you and keep you in his loving arms. May the many memories of all of her days keep your spirit filled with love and joy. You are all in my prayers.
Your Oklahoma family will miss you so much. Love, Darrell and Mary Ann Dennis
