JoAnn graduated from Faulkner University with a Bachelor's Degree in Human Resources Management and also had an Associates Degree in the paralegal field. She had such a colorful personality and sense of humor. She was always ready with a funny story to tell. She had many interests including butterflies, flowers, animals, especially dogs, and Alabama football, Roll Tide! However, her greatest joy and love in her life was her family. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a proud grandmother, especially during her favorite time of year, the holiday season, when she would show off her cooking skills for her family and friends. JoAnn was one of a kind and will be missed by all who knew and loved her. She was preceded in death by her father, Lonzie Keebler, and her mother and step-father, Alice and John England. Survivors include her husband, Joseph "Bobby" Howard; sons, Louis Alan Keebler (Tabitha) and Joey Keebler (Autumn); step-children, Wilder Darius (Drew), Joshua Howard, Nick Howard (Becca), Chris Howard, and Mercedes Byron (Justin); numerous grandchildren; brother, Robert Morris (Priscilla); sisters, Cynthia Ballard (Richard), Sylvia Roberts, and Rosemary Sowell; her fur babies, Tuffy and Ryder and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
