JoAnn Earl passed away on March 18, 2019 in Salem Oregon at age 75. She is survived by her sons Max and Brent, and granddaughter Isabella.
JoAnn was born on June 18,1943 to Fred and Mary Mullins in Salem where she grew up with her siblings Larry, Alice and Betty Jean - all have preceded her in death. Her dad was from Texas and instilled in them a bit of that Texas pride and southern lifestyle. She married Max Earl, from Phoenix, Arizona. They lived in Phoenix for a time before moving back to Salem, where she was a school teacher. After their divorce JoAnn focused on raising her two boys in a gospel-centered home. She had a deep faith in the Lord and was a strong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She loved making ceramics with her friend Ella, cooking, and taking the kids to the coast or anywhere there was fun.
JoAnn always loved bringing the family together, whether it was a birthday, BBQ for the 4th of July at Aunt Jeanny's house, Thanksgiving at Wendy's, or Christmas at home. After the kids grew up she had the great joy of helping to raise Max's daughter Isabella, who has lived with her for the last 20 years. Being Isabella's Grandma gave her meaning and purpose in the third act of her long life. Taking care of others was JoAnn's focus and what she lived for, leaving a legacy of service and love.
A funeral will be held at 11am on Monday March 25 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at 2530 Boone Rd SE, Salem OR.97306.

Isabella, I am so so sorry about your Grandmother/ mother. God promises you will see her again soon in a paradise earth where you can cook and have fun forever.
Psalm 37:9-11; John 5:28,29; Revelation 21:3,4
I miss my grandma very much I was thing about her I wish that she was here right now hugging her and we sing Elvis my mom loves him and when god returns I love him so much he is my best friend he knows all of us
My sincere condolences go to the family at this trying time. There is a Bible passage that comforts me greatly. Jesus promised he will resurrect our loved ones. John 5: 28 and 29. When earth becomes the place of peace Jesus talked about at Matthew 5:5, then we will live the promise of everlasting peace. Psalm 37:29. We have a promise from God at Revelation 21:3,4. There will be no more death and pain. There is more comfort to be read about in God's Word, the Bible concerning the resurrection and reuniting with our loved ones. May God’s peace be yours. Isaiah 26:4.
I miss my grandma a lot since she pass away in the hospital we went to see her one last time she makes good candy on holidays like Christmas and thanksgiving she loves me so much goes to lil Ella and Brent
yeah she likes to clean the house she loves dogs and I thank she likes games she like helping others and watching TV with her and I love her so much no goodbyes family are forever we will meet again someday
I will always remember the love your mother shown to me, with my time in Salem. Her always opening her home to the Elders and cooking amazing dishes. I still remember her teaching me how to appropriately cook a omelette and her pancakes with strawberry sauce and whip cream. I even kept the black towels she gave me for Christmas well into my adulthood. May God Bless the Earl family and may the Father welcome her home.
I know my dad max saw her last time and my bother Andrew miss Joann so much I am her granddaughter for many years she cooks the best pies and she teach me staff I like when she is happy I make her happy inside
Take the good memories and pass them on and leave the bad behind. Carry on the treasured aspects that you loved. Honor that person in your life going forward Each year between June 10 and June 18 I make strawberries and pancakes for dinner in remembrance of she and Jeannie's birthday. When ever making certain foods remember her in your thoughts and think of the good times you had around that meal or treat. She is reunited with her siblings and parents celebrating, we should do the same. If sadness overcomes you just think how much fun she is having going to see Elvis at the heavenly ampetheater with Alice, Jeannie and Larry. Do not grieve for her, celebrate her promotion. The one thing someone gets to take from this life and also leave behind is love. Everything else passes away that is material. Pass what you loved about her to others by cooking a meal, doing a service, lending an ear.
JoAnn was my spiritual guide . She taught me unconditional love . May her family be blessed today and forever as I am ever grateful to have had joAnnie in my world !
JoAnn was my best friend. She was my sister in this life and forever . My friend showed me love and care daily. I will hold her close to my heart until we meet again my best friend . Love you so much .
