September 10, 1939 — September 4, 2020

JoAnn E. (nee Mataya) Gruen

Entered into rest on September 4, 2020 at the age of 80. Memorial visitation will be held on Friday, September 25th from 10-12pm at John L. Ziegenhein & Sons Funeral Homes (7027 Gravois Ave, St. Louis, MO 63111) and then to Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery for the committal service. Memorial donations in JoAnn's name may be made to a charity of the donor's choice.

Beloved wife of the late Richard F. Gruen; devoted mother of the late Daniel G. Gruen, Jennifer A. (Robert) Tomiser, Christine M. (Michael) Mauer, Jane E. (Andrew) Throm, Carolyn J. (Steve) Kroeck, and Andrew R. (Carrie) Gruen; cherished grandmother of 13; dear friend to many. 

JoAnn is remembered as a veracious reader who was passionate about her family. She had a green thumb, and similar to her husband, Richard, was considered a movie “buff.” She continues to be missed, but not forgotten.
