JoAnn would fry fish for hours but never ate a bite because she didn't like fish. JoAnn's happiest moments were having her children together. Nothing meant more to JoAnn than her family. Although she did enjoy her Bingo and Casino penny slots. JoAnn would be having a rough day but if bingo or casino were mentioned, she would find the energy to make the trip and stay until wee hours of the morning. She really was not much of a gambler but played the penny slots all night long. She enjoyed every minute. JoAnn was a member of the American Legion Auxiliary. In earlier years, Delbert and JoAnn spent much time meeting with their friends at the Legion and dance the night away. JoAnn continued her support of the American Legion throughout her remaining years. JoAnn was an active member of St. Malachy Church and devoutly attended every week until her health did not allow.
