Joane Marie Hodge, at the age of 75, left our world on Sunday, March 1, 2020. She was born in Chicago, Illinois, on March 4, 1944, the daughter of John Andrew and Marion (Swiatek) Kramer.

Thoughts from her husband, David:
"Joane was the bravest person I ever met. She knew she did not have much time left in this world and handled it with grace and dignity. She never lost her love for everyone she came in contact with. I know she is in a better place, but that still does not keep me from wishing she were still here. I hope that when loved ones remember her, they think of all the love, patience, and laughter she brought into this world!!"

Joane is survived by her loving husband, David, of Sanford, Florida, her son, Doug and his two children, of Newport Beach, California; her sister, Phyllis and her brother, Ronnie, both of Los Angeles, California.

Friends of Joane are invited to a gathering in Celebration of the Life of Joane Hodge at the Hodge Residence to take place at a later date. You are kindly asked to bring a dish to share in a Potluck Dinner/BYOB. Please check back for date at a later time.
