JoAnne Wright

JoAnne was a devoted daughter to Frances and Anthony Baltrunas , a proud mother to Kristy and Amy, and a loving sister to Karen, Paul, Carl, Michael, Jon, and Al, dear grandmother to Paul.

She was a caring, loving person to all who knew her. She always had an open door and a helping hand. She was a source of strength and wisdom, offering words exactly when they were needed most.

Our mom was our hero. She always found a way-even when it didn't seem possible. She gave so much of herself, often putting others' needs before her own. Her heart had room for everyone.

She showed us daily why a daughter needs a mother: to give lasting memories, to give courage, and to catch her when she falls. She reminded us, especially on our hardest days, that we were never alone. She taught us how to be a friend when one is needed.

You will be missed, but never forgotten.

We love you, Mom.
