Joanne Elizabeth (Toenberg) Daly, 85, of Hermantown, passed peacefully on February 17, 2023 at Solvay Hospice House.
Joanne was born on February 11, 1938 in Virginia, MN and raised in Duluth. She married James F. Daly in 1958, and together had resided in Hermantown for the past 65 years. Joanne was an avid bowler and loved camping, RVing, and snowmobiling with many special friends and family.
Her true lifelong passion was animals. She fed the deer from the time she was little until she no longer was able and was often called the deer whisperer. Her dogs were her family which she loved throughout her life.
Joanne was preceded in death by her husband, James; her parents, Norman and Anne Toenberg; and sister-in-law, Kay Toenberg.
Joanne is survived by her brother, Richard “Dick” Toenberg; sister, Patricia “Pat” Gooler; and many nephews and nieces.
