Joann Wimbish was born July 4, 1943 in Darien, CT. Her earlier years living through the cold winters of CT, led her to Indiana State University for college and on to California for warmer weather. It was there she met her soulmate of 51 years, Robert (Bob) Wimbish.

Joann and Bob moved to the Bryan/College Station area so Bob could attend graduate school. Joann’s love for children led her to serve as a beloved elementary teacher at several local schools including Bonham, Johnson, Sul Ross, and Crockett. She was an active member of First United Methodist Church of Bryan, the Wesley Sunday School Class, Brazos County Aggie Mother’s Club, Texas Retired Teachers Assn, and served faithfully with Meals on Wheels.
