Joan Sterling Applegate Obituary
We are sad to announce that on February 5, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Joan Sterling Applegate in Strongsville, Ohio. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Joan farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Joan is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her son Jeffrey Applegate. She is survived by: her son Brandon Applegate; her grandchildren, Hayden Applegate and Alia Applegate; her daughter-in-law Dawn Applegate (Tuckerman); her siblings, Georgiana Mynatt, Faith Perkins, Paul Sterling and Steven Sterling; and her former husband Thomas Applegate.
For those wishing to honor Joan's memory, the family suggests a donation to the Cleveland Zoological Society to support wildlife conservation (https://www.clevelandzoosociety.org).
