Joanne P. (Parsons) Cram

Joanne P. Cram passed away on August 26, 2020 at the age of 67. She is the beloved wife of the late Ralph "Mickey". Devoted mother of the late Michael and Nicole MacAllister (Steve). Loving grandmother of James, Michaela and Madison. Dear sister of Howard "Butch" (Sis), Dolly (Larry), Edward, Diane (late Robert), Deborah, Donna (late Kevin), and the late Maryann. Sadly missed by her fairy goddaughter Diane Layton and her fiancée Jack, and also her many nieces and nephews.  Joanne worked as a practice specialist in the Department of Surgery for Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. She loved her job and her work family and was like a second mother to the doctors and staff. In her spare time she enjoyed playing card games such as Pinochle, Texas Holdem, and going to the casino. Her greatest joy came from being a mother, to her son and to everyone. Her home was always a gathering place and a safe haven for the neighborhood kids. She will be missed tremendously but her family takes comfort that she will be reunited with her loved ones, especially her husband and her beloved Michael.

Relatives and friends are invited to her viewing and funeral Friday September 4, 2020 beginning at 9am in St. Anne Church (lower) 2328 E. Lehigh Ave. Philadelphia PA 19125. Funeral Mass 10:30am. She will be laid to rest with her husband and son at a later date. 

We ask that all those attending the services wear a mask, maintain social distancing and adhere to the restrictions put in place by the church due to Covid-19.
