JoAnn M. Soderstrom, age 81, entered into eternal life peacefully and surrounded by family on January 21, 2024. Born on December 23, 1942, daughter of John Carl (J.C.) and Lillian Fenske. Devoted wife of 48 years to Bob Soderstrom. The most loving mom to Jim (Tina) Budzinski, Lisa (Jim) Stark, Jill (Dan) Sheridan, and Susan (Adam) Mildren. Nana of Sydney, Ainsley, Eric, Zach, Charlie, Lila, and Phoebe.
JoAnn was the best listener and could help solve any problem in one of three ways: on the phone, at the kitchen table, or while on a “coffee run.” She truly cared for those around her, as evidenced by her Kindergarten group of friends, staying in contact with relatives, or checking up on people that she had known for days or decades. She had a special phone call each night at 6pm with her best friend. Throughout her life she enjoyed music, Hallmark movies, reading, doing homework, and spending time with family. JoAnn’s life was a living example of generosity, unconditional love, and faith.
A celebration of life will be held at St. Stephen the Martyr Lutheran Church (6101 S. 51st St., Greendale) on Saturday, January 27. Visitation from 1 - 3PM with service to follow. In lieu of flowers or donations, hug someone you love.
