Joan loved spending time with her family and friends. She took great joy in decorating her home and taking care of her flower gardens. She loved mowing her lawn and mulching leaves. During the winter months, she worked at Kissing Bridge for a number of years. She loved animals, especially cats, and always had one for companionship. She enjoyed driving her Mercury, spending time at Rushford Lake, listening to music, and going out to lunch.

Joan was a very proud mom, grandma and great-grandma and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
