We are very sad to hear of Joan’s passing. She was a great friend to my mother June Weston during her last few years. Cam and Kristen Weston

Beautiful inside and out. Now free to join your family members and other loved ones who departed this earth before you. A long life well lived. So appreciate you keeping in touch over the many years since our mother passed, you were always a beacon of light and love Joan.

To the Family of Joan- I enjoyed your company while we were together in Inner Wheel, you always loved a chat and a welcoming smile. On the occasions I came to visit you at your home. I felt very welcome. You always looked beautiful the way you presented yourself. Our thoughts are with you all. Margaret and Ross Weir xxx
