GREENSBORO # Mrs. Joann Cairns Mazurek, 71, passed away on Saturday, June 6, 2009, at High Point Regional Hospital.
A mass of Christian burial will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday, June 8, at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church with Reverend Robert Rivers and Reverend Tony Gilborges OSFS officiating.
Joann was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Mr. and Mrs. Joseph and Teresa Kiefer Cairns. Along with her husband Bob Mazurek, she was the co-owner of Greensboro Express and Carolina Southern. She was very involved in her memberships at Sedgefield Country Club, where she served as President of the Women's Golf Association, and Greensboro Country Club. She was a wonderful friend and found joy in caring for and sharing time with her family and friends. Joann loved to read, traveled extensively, and was an avid golfer, one of few women to hit two holes-in- one.
She is survived by her husband, Robert E. Mazurek, with whom she would have shared 50 years of marriage in July; daughters, Sharon Damare of Charlotte and Cynthia Ball of Raleigh; sister, Judy (Jim) Bischoff and brother, Wilfred (Mary), Cairns, both of Pittsburgh; and her treasured grandchildren, Landon Barfoot and Bryan and Samantha Ball.
The family will receive friends from 3 until 7 p.m. tonight, Sunday, at Hanes- Lineberry Sedgefield Chapel.
