JoAnn F Perse, age 81, of Saint Louis, Missouri passed away suddenly and peacefully, with her family by her side in her home as she wished, on Saturday, December 7, 2024.
JoAnn lived an extremely exciting and colorful life, full of travel, friendships, good French wines and expensive Champagnes. She never met a lemon tart that she would turn down.
JoAnn had a home-base in St. Louis but considered Little Rock Arkansas, New York City, and Paris her other homes. Her absolute favorite place is where she was born, in Oregon, and where she will for ever reside on the Oregon coast.
JoAnn passed on her love of travel to her children and her absolute dedication to sports especially Football.
JoAnn was preceded in death by her parents and sister Susan. She is survived by Cindy, Molly, and Jim, and by her sister Kathy, grandchildren Alex and Will, and nieces and nephews.
