JoAnn Marie Myers, 95, passed away peacefully on July 21, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on March 22, 1931, in Lincoln, Illinois, JoAnn lived a life rooted in faith and family. She touched countless lives through her endless love and generous heart.
A devoted Catholic, JoAnn's faith was the foundation of her life. She found great joy in spending time with her family and treasured every opportunity to gather with those she loved.
JoAnn delighted in being creative and loved crafting, sewing, painting and solving jigsaw puzzles. She cherished all her travels, especially to the beach. Her seashell collection was impressive!
More than anything, JoAnn was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend. She leaves behind a legacy of love, faith and cherished memories.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 58 years, Larry Dale Myers; her daughter, Susanne Myers; her parents, George & Marie Ebbert; her brother, Richard Ebbert; and her great-granddaughter, Aileen Myers.
JoAnn is lovingly remembered by her sons, Mike (Becky) Myers and Larry (Barb) Myers; her grandchildren, Michael Myers, Katie (Kyle) Wilson, John (Nicole) Myers, Greg Myers, Kim (Patrick) Bales, Monica Myers, Barb (Matt) Billinger, James Myers, Elizabeth (Michael) Janacaro, Phillip Myers, Erin (Robert) Fox, Laura (Paul) Cento, Michelle Myers and Daniel (Marissa) Myers; and her treasured great-grandchildren, Alexandra, Nicolas, Kaleigh, Rian, Sean, Penelope, Lawrence, Emily, William, Claire, Natalie, Magdalene, Benedict, Jack, Lily, Charlie, Ben, Jacob, Max, Hudson and Emery.
Her family finds comfort in knowing she has been welcomed into eternal life and reunited with those who went before her. While she will be deeply missed, her love, faith, and the many memories she created will remain in the hearts of all who knew her.
