After graduating from Martinsburg High School, Joan went on to earn a bachelor’s degree from Shepherd University. While working as an executive secretary, she received honorable recognition for being the first female executive of the YMCA national office in the Washington, DC area. She enjoyed reading new books on a regular basis, and was a full time mom who always looked forward to being present to watch her sons play baseball.
Joan is survived by her sons: Keith McWhorter and Doug McWhorter; two grandchildren: Dani McWhorter and Devin McWhorter; her beloved friend, Mrs. Barbara Perrell; as well as many additional friends and loved ones.
She was preceded in death by both of her parents.
The McWhorter family will hold a memorial service for Joan in the chapel of Rosedale Funeral Home beginning at 11am on Saturday, February 25, 2023.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be directed to Hospice of The Panhandle, 330 Hospice Drive, Kearneysville, West Virginia 25430.
