Josephine Elizabeth Moore

Josephine Elizabeth (Drazada) Moore, 90, of O’Fallon, Missouri, died peacefully on November 5th, 2023. Joanne was born in St. Louis in 1933 to William Edward Drazda and Effie Burl Morris. Joann grew up in Maplewood with her mom, Effie who was a registered nurse. Her father worked at Anheuser Busch and passed away from gain green when Joann was just two years old. Joann was an only child. She attended St. Mary’s Catholic school until 8th grade. She did not attend high-school and went straight to working right out of 8th grade. She was a loan officer at Monsanto Bank and First community state bank. She later retired and became a part time realtor. Though Joann was a busy, hardworking woman, nothing brought her greater joy than being with all of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She treasured her time as a grandparent and enjoyed things like making her grandkids porridge (oatmeal) and taking them to the pond to feed the geese with bread. Joann was the grandma to eleven grandchildren and sixteen great grandchildren. Joann leaves behind her handsome, Shih Tzu, Max, who she loved immensely. Joann will always be remembered for her witty humor and her ability to make everyone laugh. She was the glue that held her family together. We’ll always imagine hearing her sing “I take a big puff and I get real high”, her famous horse calls, and talks of her quarter dollars. We couldn’t have asked for a better parent, grandparent, friend and we will miss her every day. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all those who loved her. Joann was preceded in death by her parents, her first husband, Joseph Krewet; her second husband, Donald Moore; her fiancé, Glennon Robinson and second oldest daughter, Michelle Ward. Joann is survived by children: Joseph Krewet, Larry (Linda) Krewet, Donna (Joe) Biondo, Cherie Moore, and Patricia (Douglas) Hoag; grandchildren: Nicole, Jeffery, Jason, Michelle, Angela, Lauren, Joey, Ricky, Colton, Kaylin, and Kristina; her sixteen beautiful great grandchildren and other family and friends.
