JoAnna Mitts Diaz

JoAnna Mitts Diaz, 71 of Holland, Michigan, passed away Sunday, August 21, 2022, at her home. Born November 12, 1950, in Newport, Arkansas, she was the daughter of the late Coy and Helen (Ray) Mitts. JoAnna was a kind and caring person, who enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Her spare time was spent working on her crafts and fishing. JoAnna battled illnesses for many years but did her best not to let it get her down. She never wanted her illnesses to intrude on precious time spent with her family. Her memory will stay alive through the retelling of special moments spent together.

Those left to cherish her memories are her three children, Angi (Andy) Pena, Rafael (Cindy) Moreno, and Raymond (Katrina) Moreno; eight grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; and five siblings.

Along with her parents, JoAnna was preceded in death by her other five siblings.

The family will meet with friends at Chappell Funeral Home on Wednesday, August 24, 2022, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, at which time the funeral service will begin, Pastor Rick Jones officiating. Burial will take place in East Saugatuck Cemetery. A luncheon will be held following interment at the VFW in Fennville, Michigan (2373 53rd St, Fennville, MI 49408). Memorial donations may be made to the family in care of Angi Pena to assist them in purchasing JoAnna’s monument stone. The family wishes to thank everyone who has reached out to them. Your kindness is greatly appreciated.
