1947 ~ 2019
Joanne Degelman, aged 71 years, passed away peacefully at Riverview Health Centre in the early morning of Saturday, May 25, 2019 with her family by her side.
She will be missed and remembered by her son Shane and his wife Cindy, her grandchildren, Reid, J.P., Amanda, Kassey, Michael and Kathryn, sisters, Irene, Germaine (Martin), Dorilda, Leona (Dick), Terry, and Karen (Dave), many nieces and nephews as well as special friends Judy, Pam, Margaret and Fern.
Mom was predeceased by her parents, Joseph and Dorilda Robillard, sister Evie Crossman, brothers-in-law, Gil, Paul, Bill and Ed, nephews, Rene and Derek.
Mom was a loving and devoted mother who worked hard to provide and championed for her son always. She was employed with Scotiabank for many years retiring 6 years ago.
Mom fought a courageous battle. She kept us laughing and tried to shield us from her pain.
A special thank you to Auntie Terry and Auntie Germaine for being there from day one; to the wonderful staff at Riverview Health Centre for all the care and compassion, especially Barb who brightened our days.
A Celebration of Life is planned for Saturday, June 8 at 2:00 p.m. at Sobering Funeral Chapel, 1035 Park Avenue E., Beausejour.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Jo-Ann’s memory may be made to CancerCare Manitoba, 675 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg, MB R3E 0V9.

Our heartfelt condolences to you Shane and Family. Jo-Ann has been my friend my whole life and I will miss her terribly. I’m so grateful to have had a few days with her a short time ago. Seeing her laugh and smile when we spoke of the crazy years “way back then” will stay with me always.
Jo-Ann was a very special woman. She loved her family and was so proud of her grandsons Reid and JP and her son Shane.
And I’m so proud and happy to have been her friend. She will always be in my heart
Love to you Shane and all of her Family
