Joanne was a member of Safe Harbor Baptist Fellowship, where she had served as the church pianist. She came from a musical family, which developed her love of playing the piano. Joanne is survived by her husband of fifty one years, John Shupp; her daughter, Lori (Joel) Braswell; her son, David Shupp; two grandchildren, Rachel Braswell and Benjamin Braswell; three sisters, Joyce (John) Brownsberger, Judith “Judy” Haenes and Jeanette “Jeannie” (Bruce) Judisch.
