Joann Elizabeth Carol Bartlett Baumann, 85, of Goldsboro, NC went to her heavenly home on May 7, 2024.

 

Joann was born on May 20th, 1938, to Henry Lee and Daisy Best Bartlett in Adamsville, NC.

 

She married William Roger Baumann in 1967.  They had two children, Lisa Ann and Michael Christopher Baumann.

 

Joann worked many years and retired from Wayne Memorial Hospital’s Maintenance Department in 1991.  After that, Joann worked part-time for a local business that provided support and assistance for families that had special needs children.  She loved the children dearly and really loved the babies.

 

Joann loved family time, going to the beach, fishing, gardening, mall walking, crossword puzzles, telling funny jokes, and country music.  In her later years, she had two very special fur babies that she loved and doted on; Tootsie (18) a poodle mix and Sweetie (15) a miniature black poodle.  She loved them both dearly.

 

Joann is survived by her two siblings: Doris Boyette and Kenneth Bartlett Sr., also known as Uncle Brother.  She is survived also by her husband, William Roger and her two children, Lisa Ann and Michael Baumann.

 

Joann was preceded in death by her parents, and older sister, and several beloved relatives and cousins.

 

A Memorial celebrating Joann’s life will be held on Sunday May 19, 2024 with visitation from 1:00 PM-2:30 PM at Howell Funeral Home & Crematory in Goldsboro.

 

In lieu of flowers, please donate to a local animal shelter or the Humane Society of Wayne County.
