Joanne Rosemary Grell was born July 21, 1966 in St. Thomas Virgin Island


to the parents of Erroll Grell Sr. and Patricia Grell. 


As a young lady, she was filled with nothing but joy, happiness, fun and being able to put a smile on your face by her welcoming personality;

She graduated from Charlotte Amalie High School in St. Thomas Virgin Island, class of 1984. She was blessed to have two beautiful children, Andre Previn Smith and Jenae Marlyssa White.


Joanne was nothing but the best friend you have always wanted. She was always there when you needed her with no questions asked. Helping another and not expecting anything in return is what she taught her children. Many were blessed to see her even on a sad gloomy day. She brought so much sunshine to people’s lives.


On November 24, 2021, God called Joanne home from labor to reward.

Preceding Joanne, her brother Erroll Grell Jr.
