A memorial service will be held on Thursday, June 30, at 10:00 a.m., at Saint 
Pauls Episcopal Church for Joanne Mullins, who passed away on June 25. Father 
Mark Lawrence will officiate at the service. Joanne was born on April 6, 1949; 
her parents were Gertrude and Mason Purtle. She grew up in Bakersfield, 
graduating from East High School. She received Bachelors and Masters degrees 
in Music with an emphasis on Opera from California State University 
Northridge. She was a singer and actress on stage and television, and later 
pursued a career in public relations and exhibit design in New York and Los 
Angeles. Joanne returned to Bakersfield twelve years ago and made a beautiful 
home for her husband and daughter. Joanne was an ethusiastic volunteer, 
principally with the Assistance League of Bakersfield, where she loved to 
provide school clothes to needy children and for several years managed the 
Assisteens, the Leagues auxiliary for high school girls. She also was 
instrumental in revitalizing the preschool at St. Pauls. Joanne brought 
energy, innovation and organizational strength to every project she undertook. 
Joanne is survived by her husband, Dennis Mullins; her daughter, Anna Mullins; 
her sister, Laurie Berryhill of Bakersfield; and her brother, Jeffrey Purtle 
of Greenville, South Carolina.
