Mrs. Joanne Yvonne Harford-Grapes, 88 of Uniontown, passed away Wednesday evening, March 27th, in the comfort of her home.
She is survived by her two children Jamie Grapes of Buffington, and Ricky Grapes of Uniontown. Joanne had 3 grandchildren who thought the world of her. Ricky Grapes Jr. of Uniontown, James McClelland of Uniontown, and Jason McClelland of Buffington. She is also remembered dearly by her great grandchildren Jonathan Grapes of Uniontown, and Savannah Grapes of Uniontown. Joanne was over the moon to learn that she had a great-great granddaughter, Abigail Grace. Todd & Brian Leasure of Cumberland MD had become Joanne’s adopted grandchildren through family friendship. She loved them dearly.
Although Joanne has left this earth, her memory lives on in everyone that loved her. She often spoke of times that were near and dear to her heart. Those included the friendships made during 50 years of cleaning homes and businesses, raising her children, and nurturing her grandchildren. As those that love her are mourning a loss, she would have wanted everyone to carry on with many great memories of her. To respect Joanne’s wishes, her family will have a private ceremony to honor the life and legacy of Mrs. Grapes.
Donations can be made to St. Jude Children’s Hospital in her name.
Arrangements have been entrusted to the ANDREW D. FERGUSON FUNERAL HOME & CREMATORIES, INC., 80 Morgantown St., Uniontown, PA.
Memories and condolences can be shared with the family at adferguson.com and on the funeral home Facebook page.
