Joann N. Glass, 75
Joann N. Glass, 75 of Widowville passed away Monday evening, May 20, 2024 in University Hospitals Samaritan Medical Center.
She was born on April 4, 1949 in Huntington, Pennysylvania, the daughter of the late Frank and Edna (nee Weaver) Riling.
Joann graduated from Crestview High School, Class of 1967.
Joann retired after 9 years from Merillat Industries in Loudonville and previously was employed at Philway Products.
Throughout her life she has enjoyed needlework, both sewing and crocheting. Her love of cooking was amazing, and she had plenty of family members eager to taste test the finished product from all the new recipes she tried out. True happiness for Joann was quality time spent with her husband, children, grandchildren and those precious great-grandchildren.
Joann is survived by her loving husband of 55 years, William “Bill” Glass of Widowville, whom she married December 7, 1968. Not being a fan of the cold Michigan weather, they spent their honeymoon in Miami Beach, Florida.
Also surviving Joann, are two sons, Joe Glass and Aaron D. (Lynn) Glass, both Widowville; six grandchildren, Sage (Matt Deming), Jade (Tristan Messner), Grace, Zachary (Erica), Alex and Elisa Glass; two great grandchildren, Griffin and Domenic Glass; one sister, Sharon (Lanny) Fisher of Carrollton, Texas; four sisters-in-law Shirley Riling of Ashland, Jean Riling of Red Oaks, Texas, Anna Mae Beecher of Widowville and Leona Glass of Ashland.
In addition to her parents, Joann is preceded in death by two sons, Brent Glass who passed away in 1972 and Kevin Glass who passed away on June 2, 2014; two brothers, Charles Riling and Richard Riling; a sister Alice Tooley and a brother-in-law, Charles Glass.
