About | Joee was born on September 1, 1974 in Murray, Utah; daughter of Randy and Sheila Bennion. She spent her life in Utah Valley, and graduated from Jordan High in '92. She loved to spend time with those she cared about; especially her family, her boyfriend, and close friends. She was an independent, single mother; her pride and joy in this world were her two wonderful children: daughter, Madison, 19 and son, Shawn, 14. She's very thankful to Mike for the years they had spent together and the two children they had. The last few months were brightened by her boyfriend, Greg. We are grateful for how happy he made her. Joee was selfless, thoughtful, loyal, sincere, respectful, empathic, understanding, a nurturer, a peace-keeper, a dreamer, a fun-loving spirit, a unique individual, and she touched so many lives. She was a loving mother, cherished daughter, treasured sister and an altruistic person. Joee passed away surrounded by loved ones on Wednesday, September 19th, 2012 at the age of 38, due to health complications that lead to a rare and un-treatable condition. Joee is survived by her daughter, Madi; son, Shawn; parents; Randy and Sheila; brothers: Jess (Heather) and Jake (Karen) Bennion; sister, Jami (Brian) Hill and many nieces and nephews.
