Joanne DiNello Wood, 70, of South Yarmouth, MA and Englewood, FL, formerly of Southington, CT, entered into Eternal Peace on Saturday August 8, 2020. She was the beloved wife to the late George Wood. Joanne, the loving daughter to the late George and Adeline (Celella) DiNello, was born January 13, 1950 and grew up in Southington, CT where she lived much of her life.
A graduate of Southington High School, Joanne went on to own and run a tax accounting business from her home for many years, taking over for her father following his retirement. Joanne enjoyed traveling, sewing, lunches with her cousins, weekend trips with her girlfriends, combing the beach, the 4th of July, and most of all – her grandchildren. Each summer Joanne would bring her grandchildren to Cape Cod, affectionately known as Camp GrammaGrampa, and spoil them each in her own way. The special memories Grandma Jo made with each of her grandchildren will never be forgotten.
Joanne will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She is survived by her daughter Kelly LaCluyze of Southington and grandchildren Robert and Katherine, her daughter Karen Roberts and son-in-law Dan of Burlington and grandchildren David and Emily, her partner of 12 years Paul Crucshiel of Yarmouth Port, MA and his son Andrew and daughter-in-law Emiko, her brother Philip DiNello, her mother-in-law Eileen Wood, her sisters-in-law Patricia (Paul) Cichowski and Susan (Henry) Hopkins, nieces, nephews, and many family members and friends who were so dear to Joanne throughout her life.
A special thank you to the staff at Visiting Nurse Association of Cape Cod Hospice for their care and compassion during this pandemic, allowing Joanne to remain comfortable and among family during such a difficult time.
