Charter Member

JoAnn Luther . . .

believes that she first picked up a handbell in 1993, and is proud to have been one of the "founding members" of Sonoran Bells. She has been a member of the handbell choir at St. Mark's United Methodist Church and is currently the group's director.   Besides handbells, her musical background includes singing and piano.

JoAnn originally hails from Reading, Pennsylvania, but she has spent most of her life in Tucson and has developed many wonderful friendships as a much-in-demand hairstylist. In her limited free time, she loves working in her yard, and entertaining family and friends. 

She says that someday she would like to travel extensively all over the "lower 48" in a big RV and work on her black belt in shopping.
