Joanne Emnett

She was happily married to Howard (HB) Emnett for 46 years. She was a longtime member of St. Pius X Catholic Church in Reynoldsburg and St. Joseph's in Maumee. She was active in the Rosary Alter Society, Knights of Columbus Auxiliary, The Catholic Ladies of Columbia, and the VFW Auxiliary. She was a very caring and generous person volunteering and donating to many different charities. She worked her entire adult life to help support her husband and family. Family was always most important for her and she will be dearly missed. All of our family and friends would always request her special potato salad at every gathering.

Joanne Emnett was preceded in death by her husband Howard B. Emnett, parents Charles (Dorothy) Wetta, her brother David Wetta and her sister-in-law Betty, her sister Charlene and brother Billie during their toddler years; her brother-in-law Harry Yoder, and son-in-law Edward Bachman. She is survived by her daughter Sandee Bachman, son Charles (Julie) Emnett; and grandchildren, Larry (Joanne) Bachman, Kindl (Ann) Bachman, Marnie (Jean) Bachman, Brian (Juniper) Emnett, Kaitlyn (Joe) Gaines, Devin (Maddie) Emnett, great grandchildren E.J., Evan, Jordyn, Rylee, Ellie and a new great grandchild due in July; her brother Robert (Mary Ellen) Wetta; her sister Becky (Scottie) Thomas, and many nieces and nephews.
