Joanne Hampton-Lawson born January 13,1944 of North Charleston, South Carolina entered into eternal rest on September 11, 2024. She is the baby of four siblings born to the late Beatrice Simmons and William Simmons. Joanne was preceded in death by her Eldest sister, Willa Beatice Snipe, (Brother) Alfred Comfort and (Son) Thomas Simmons.

Joanne attended Charleston County schools and began her employment at Baker Hospital downtown on Calhoun Street and later was employed at St. Francis Hospital where she retired in 2003 after 32 years of service.

She is survived by two sisters; Annabelle Gold Fludd and Shirley Hines, Quinton Simmons(son), Micheal Simmons(son), Victorina Hampton(daughter) Mark Hampton(son) 25 grandchildren, 21 great grandchildren and a host nieces, nephews , and extended family.

Joanne had a soft spot in her heart for feeding people as cooking was her love language. She was a mother figure for so many people and always had an open door policy to her home if you needed a place to stay or simply needed encouragement.

Joanne love for the lord permitted her many works in the church. She served as a Deconess, treasurer, and of course a MOTHER for many years under the leadership of Bishop Davis, Bishop Brown and Apostle Mary.

Joanne had many hobbies and a passion for many things. Feeding the homeless, going to yard sales, planning different events for church functions just to name a few.

Joanne will always be remembered for her love for people and kind heart. She never hesitated to make a way out of no way. She would give her last just to ensure that everyone else was ok.

We could not have asked for a better vessel that shared a very special part of our lives.
