Joanna is survived by her loving husband of 53 years, Barry, and their children, Steven, Patricia, Peter and Angella, seven grandchildren and five great grandchildren. She is also survived by one brother, and four sisters.

Joanna was artistic, adventurous, a walker who loved the outdoors, gardening, animals, birds and flowers. As well, she was honest, fun, remarkably imaginative, open and pure. Joanna will live on, her spirit a part of her adoring family and in the fond memories of all who were ever touched by her.
