Mrs. Joanne Patricia Meek, age 72, passed away Monday, October 21, 2024, in Century, FL.
She had a deep love for art and coloring, finding joy in every brushstroke and hue. Her home was filled with her cherished collection of roosters, each one telling a story. Weekend adventures to yard sales and thrift stores were a highlight, where she loved hunting for hidden treasures. Spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren brought her immense happiness, as they created memories together. She found peace in her church community and especially looked forward to decorating for the holidays, filling her home with cheer. Always by her side was her favorite dog, Peanut, who accompanied her everywhere, adding an extra layer of warmth to her day.
