Joann H. Carlson

October 29, 1942 — December 15, 2024

The family of JoAnn Carlson of Schenectady NY is saddened to announce her passing on Sunday December 15, 2024 at the age of 82.

JoAnn was born on October 29, 1942 in Schenectady NY and was the daughter of the late George and Germaine (Hatton) Carlson. She was pre deceased by her four siblings.

She was a graduate of Draper High School in 1960 and Mildred Elly Secretarial School in 1961. She started her career with the Golub Corporation before she moved on to work for over 25 years with GE where she then retired from.

Most thought of JoAnn as being a quiet woman who kept to herself. Family knew her as feisty and quick witted. She brought an energy to the room that made you want to be around her. She had a flair for shopping on QVC, enjoying a good Manhattan from time to time and listening and dancing to Polka music. JoAnn also enjoyed her daytime soaps and talk shows especially Judge Judy.

JoAnn is survived by many nieces and nephews who loved her dearly and her beloved and constant companion Sammy boy.

The family wishes to extend their sincere gratitude to Community Hospice for their care and compassion while treating JoAnn as well as the Rotterdam Schenectady Dialysis, Dr. Roddy and the vascular group at Albany Medical Center and the Companion Medical Center for their care with her beloved Sammy.

JoAnn’s services will be private.

Memorial contributions can be made in her memory to the Animal Protective Foundation, 53 Maple Avenue, Schenectady NY 12302.
