Obituary for Joanne M Lowe

Joanne M  Lowe
A celebration of the life of Joanne M. (neé Haire) Lowe of Mentor, formerly of Lyndhurst, will be held 11 a.m. Thursday at McMahon-Coyne-Vitantonio Funeral Home, 38001 Euclid Ave., Willoughby.
Mrs. Lowe passed away Saturday, June 10, 2017, surrounded by her family.
She was born on June 20th, daughter of the late Howard M. and Josephine V. Haire.
Joanne devoted her life to raising her seven children. She had also worked as a caregiver for many families and was later employed at Orange High School until her retirement. In her younger years, she tap danced at an elite level, performing for the USO and VFW with her sister, Carole.
Joanne truly enjoyed those fun times shared with her children and extended family during the summers spent at their cottage. She will be remembered for her youthful spirit, dancing and playing cards, nurturing that same love into the lives of her children. Joanne was also a longtime Cleveland Indians fan and looked forward to watching every game.
Survivors are her six children, Maureen Dorsey (Fred Mertes), Susan (Alan) St. John, Debra (Mike) Malaney, Michael Lowe (Megan O’Connor), Sandra (Peter) Ponti, and Linda (Gary) Thomas; grandchildren, Chris, Bret, Kim, Bryan, Jennifer, Michael, Derek, Tommy, Katelyn, Lindsey, Dominique, Jessica, András, Tyler, Stephanie, Julia, Taylor, Sydney and Jordan; 14 great-grandchildren; sister, Carole Wochele; and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her daughter, Cathleen Williams; and grandson, Peter Clark.
“Mother is one who can take the place of all others, but whose place no one else can take. We will always carry you with us in our hearts.”
Family will receive friends from 3 to 8 p.m. Wednesday and from 10 a.m. until the time of the celebration at the funeral home. Burial will be held in Knollwood Cemetery at a later date.
Contributions in her name are suggested to the Lake County Humane Society, 7564 Tyler Blvd., Mentor, OH 44060, or Great Lakes Caring Home Health and Hospice, 5966 Heisley Road, Suite 100, Mentor, OH 44060.
