LaBelle, Joan P. age 86 of St. Louis Park. "Grandma Joanie" passed away peacefully on March 25. Preceded in death by her beloved husband, Lorney and brother, Richard Jacobs. Survived by her sons, Lance (Joan), Bill (Sara), and Shaun (Laura); grandchildren, Michael, Lindsey, Ali, Chelsea and so many of her dear friends. Joanie was born in New York City and came to Minneapolis in 1953 after marrying Twin Cities native Lorney. She and Lorney raised three boys in Golden Valley as Joanie embarked upon her entrepreneurial career in the world of cosmetics. Joanie had her own line of custom make-up and (not surprisingly) was giving make-up tips and lipsticks to the hospital nurses up until her very last day. Joanie took great pride in her sons' accomplishments but nothing compared to the passion she had for her beloved grandchildren. Joanie will be dearly missed by her family and countless friends. Private funeral service. SHIVA Tuesday, March 28th at 7:00 pm at Knollwood Place, 3630 Phillips Parkway, St. Louis Park. Hodroff-Epstein 612-871-1234 hodroffepstein.com
