Joanne enjoyed working in her garden, attending to her beautiful flowers, and spending time on the water crabbing with her father. She also loved music and was an adept musician, having played the piano, clarinet, tenor saxophone, and trumpet. She was very proud of getting her CDL license, needing to parallel park a dump truck to get it! Most of all, Joanne loved spending time with and caring for her family.
