Nettie JoAnn Bird, 77, of Shelley passed away March 16, 2012 at Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center.
She was born September 9, 1934 in Shelley, Idaho to George Alton and Mabel Louise Anderson Williams. She grew up in Idaho Falls and later graduated from Idaho Falls High School in 1953.
JoAnn married Gwen Cavill "Chub" Bird, in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple on February 20, 1953. She was a faithful member of LDS Church.
JoAnn was the family historian. She researched and printed an extensive family history complete with chronologically ordered pictures and stories. She also completed many generations of genealogy work for all sides of the family. JoAnn was well known for her talents as a seamstress, tailor, and gifted artist. She was a true sports fan, but an even greater fan of all her children and grandchildren. She enjoyed making quilts, and we enjoy the warmth and love they give us.
