JoAnn M. Skarivoda, 76, of Manitowoc, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, July 17, 2019, at Harborview Assisted Living, Manitowoc, following a courageous battle from a rare and aggressive salivary duct carcinoma, with her loving family at her side.

JoAnn was born on July 16, 1943, in Milwaukee, daughter of the late Albert and Sylvia (Kerscher) Bolzenthal. She grew up in Manitowoc county and attended St. Mark Grade School in Two Rivers and graduated from Two Rivers Washington High School. On June 6, 1964, JoAnn married Edwin L. Skarivoda at St. Mark Catholic Church in Two Rivers. The couple recently celebrated their 55th Wedding Anniversary. After raising her children, she was employed at the Manitowoc School District as a Title 1 Reading Specialist spending most of her time at the Madison and Franklin Elementary Schools. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends and never missed an opportunity to attend all of her grandchildren's events. JoAnn also enjoyed cooking, growing plants and flowers, feeding the birds, reading and especially traveling with Ed throughout all the 50 states and parts of Europe, Canada and Mexico. In her retirement she did volunteer work as a House Manager for the Capitol Civic Centre and the Manitowoc Area Visitor Center. JoAnn was a private care giver for an elderly couple, her mother and her aunt prior to their deaths.

JoAnn was a member of St. Francis of Assisi Parish, St. Clare Society, and volunteered at St. Francis of Assisi as a Communion distributor. In the past, JoAnn was a 4-H Leader for the Goodwin Ever-Readies.
