Joni Treadaway of Corinth passed away peacefully in her sleep on April 15, 2018. She was born on March 21, 1941 to Charles and Vera (Terrell) Tedford in Wichita Falls, Texas.

Joni ("Granabell" to her five grandchildren) enjoyed singing, writing, cooking, gardening, traveling, and church. She poured her heart and soul into everything she did and everyone in her life. Much like her delicious recipes that will be passed down to future generations, so will the unforgettable memories associated with her.

Joni was a proud graduate of Baylor University - Class of 1963. While on a mission trip in Idaho, she met the love of her life, a fellow Texan who became her husband of almost 55 years, Air Force Col. Robert E. Treadaway (retired). She was a retired Irving ISD middle school teacher, and continued her love of teaching by being a substitute teacher for Denton ISD. Joni will be missed dearly, thought of often, and always loved.

She is survived by her husband, Robert ("Bob") Treadaway; son David Treadaway and grandchildren Riley and Colton of Flower Mound, Texas; son Christopher Treadaway and wife Melissa, and grandchildren Madeline, Savannah and Dax of Denton, Texas; sister Carolyn (Tedford) Looney and family of Wichita Falls, Texas; sister-in-law Katherine Tedford of Wichita Falls, Texas; and numerous amounts of cousins, nieces and nephews.

We want to thank all of those at The Village at Valley Creek Memory Care in Denton, Texas for your help caring for our beloved Joni, and to her church family at Southmont Baptist.

A memorial service will be held on April 20, 2018 at Southmont Baptist Church in Denton, Texas at 2:00pm. At Joni's request, her remains will be cremated and her ashes interred at The Celina Cemetery, at Robert E. Treadaway's family plot.

In lieu of flowers or gifts, the family asks that donations be made in Joni's honor to the Alzheimer's Association at www.alz.org .
