JoAnn (JoAnn Tadgerson) from Negaunee, MI
Marine
and
JoAnn is married to Jim, a proud Gulf War Marine Corps veteran. They have three sons who
all chose to serve after High School. Starting in 2015, their oldest did two enlistments in the
Marine Corps as a combat Engineer. In 2019, their middle son enlisted and is currently
serving in the Air Force. The youngest recently completed boot camp at MCRD San Diego.
They are all avid hockey fans and love the Detroit Red Wings and Lions.
When JoAnn's oldest decided to enlist in the Marine Corps 10 years ago, she was
introduced to the MarineParents Facebook group for MCRD. That group became a second
family for those 13 weeks. The knowledge, support, and camaraderie were a lifeline during
that time. When she was embarking on this second boot camp adventure, she knew to find
and join the pages immediately. When a post went out asking for new volunteers, JoAnn
knew this was where she wanted to focus her time and give back to the community that
gave so much to her.
