Ionia Sentinel Standard - Sept. 21, 2011


Joanne (Mom) Shore passed away Sunday morning, Sept. 18, 2011 pain-free at 
Spectrum Hospital in Greenville; she was 76 years old.

She is survived by her former husband, James Shore (Dorothy) of Daytona Beach, 
Fla., and her four children: son, David and Melissa-Truesch Shore of 
Westerville, Ohio, daughter, Lynn and Francis Mason of Belding, and sons Allan 
Shore (Erick) of Benicia, Calif., and Duane Shore of Belding.

She is also survived by her cousin, Lois (Bill) Riley of Trenton; her sister-in-
law, Jeanne (Kenny) Hallem of Grandville; her grandson, Martin (Jamie) Mason of 
Belding; two great-grandchildren, Payton Jo and Jackson James; her grandson, 
Spencer Shoe (Nikki Goldy); her 2-month-old great-grandson, Emerson Orion Shore 
of Kentwood; her grandson, Richard Mason of S. Fort Myers, Fla.; and

She was preceded in death by her grandparents; her sister, Vera Cotter 
(Belding – 1994); her brother, Richard Smith (Redford Twp. -2001); her mother, 
Ethel; and grandpa, Harold Caldwell.

Joanne was a loving and proud mom, born in Ecorse, and a longtime resident of 
Belding.

Painting and wallpapering were her passions and she was a former employee at 
one of Belding’s original Silk Mills with her sister, Vera. Later in life, she 
enjoyed feeding the birds, watching the Food and Travel Channels and rubbing 
off her tickets. 

Joanne loved visiting with her friends at the VFW Hall and was a long-time 
member of the American Legion; she is already being missed deeply.

Funeral services will be 11 a.m. Friday, Sept. 23, at Johnson-Feuerstein 
Funeral Home, Belding with Pastor Byron Davey officiating. Visitation services 
will be one hour before the service. Committal prayers will follow at Ashley 
Cemetery. A gathering of family and friends will follow the services at the 
American Legion Post in downtown Belding.

Memorial contributions may be given to the wishes of the family, Belding Area 
Food Pantry and Mel Trotter.
