WINSTED – Joann Lee Ecke entered the world in Torrington, the oldest of her siblings, Hal, Dickie, and Jackie. She met her soulmate Nick at a party, was married in 1954 and settled in the home Nick built for them in Winsted.
Four children followed over 10 years. Car trips to Florida, vacations at their summer home on the Cape, weekend soirées with friends, and rather large gatherings on holidays (and then some) for family and friends brought Jo and Nick so much joy.
Jo loved to travel! She survived chaperoning high schoolers to Russia and traveled extensively alone or with Nick throughout Europe and the Balkans. Extremely well-read, she completed her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in library science and eventually ran libraries at Pearson, Batcheller, Hinsdale, and Greenwoods schools until she retired.
