JoAnn &quot;Jo&quot; Grensing, 64, of Meridian, Idaho, returned home to her heavenly father September 2, 2025. She was born January 14, 1961, in San Gabriel, California as the fourth daughter of Neva and Rollo Barrett. Her early years were spent in California and St. George, Utah, before the family eventually settled in Meridian, Idaho. JoAnn&apos;s kindness and caregiving nature were evident from an early age as personalities began to emerge among the children. A graduate of Meridian High School (1979), JoAnn excelled academically and sang joyfully in church, and in the school choir. After graduation, she attended beauty school, worked locally, and soon began an adventurous chapter working in motels in neighboring states. She later settled back in Idaho, where she became the proud mother of son, Everett, and daughter, Neva. Motherhood was her greatest joy, and she faced life&apos;s challenges with resilience, faith, and grace. In 1994, JoAnn met the love of her life, Larry Grensing, at an autumn church dance. Their connection was immediate, and they married that same December. Together, they blended their families with love, and Joann embraced her stepdaughter, Celina as her own. Joann&apos;s affection for family and her ability to nurture those around her defined her life. Her career reflected her natural gift for caretaking. She worked as a CNA and later as Director of Admissions at Capitol Care Center, always offering compassion and comfort to others. She also cared tenderly for her father and later her husband during their final years. After Larry&apos;s retirement, the couple moved to Garden Valley, where they cherished time in the mountains, enjoying nature, and building a life in their tight-knit community. They helped establish the Payette Forward thrift store, a non-profit that reflected their giving spirits. Though they later returned to Meridian for Larry&apos;s medical care, JoAnn continued to build lasting friendships with neighbors and her church community. After Larry&apos;s passing in 2021, JoAnn carried on with courage, drawing strength from her family, her faith, and the many relationships she cherished. She will always be remembered as a devoted wife, loving mother, beloved sister, and dear friend to many. Her radiant presence, kindness, and warmth touched all who knew her. JoAnn is survived by her children: Everett (Jeremy), Neva, and Celina (McQ); granddaughter, Hailee; siblings: Peggy, Mary, and Rollo; and her extended family who will miss her dearly. She was preceded in death by her husband, Larry, and parents.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1219802/open_sms">Send us a text</a><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1219802/support">Support the show</a>
