After her military service, she earned a degree in Computer Science from Lorain County Community College and worked in the IT/Tech field for many years.

Joanne loved volunteering at the Friendship APL, Elyria Hospitality Center, and Good Knights of Lorain County. She was also an active member of Poco Loco Line Dancers and a participant in the local OA. Above all, Joanne loved being a loving mother and dedicated grandmother.
