Condolences & Memories (13 entries)

• Dear Aunty Joan is still up in heaven, playing the organ that she loved so much.... with her dreams and desires of how she raced the dash and won. I had a dream that I was I humming while she sang and I hit a note or two. We all are remembering the days now that we sang together, as she remains in heaven, while I remain here. I loved our fun talks and glory days, dreaming of family times.... I can still hear her voice in my ears, inviting me for french fries every day, which her poor children loved.... Do they play the yodel in heaven? One day we will meet again, to reminisce together with Jesus! I did finally forgive you for leaving us, mostly. Until the day comes we rejoice together with our loving desires after this time apart... Loving and missing you always! May you stay in heaven rejoicing with the fruits of your passion. - Posted by: Kim Ellison (niece) on: Aug 01, 2018

• I'm grateful to Auntie Joan for taking me into her home as a young teen and treating me like one of her own. Never cast judgement upon me, always allowed me to be who I was at that time in my life. She has helped to shape who I am today through her encouragement and support and caring there is a permanent impression she has left in my heart, I only hope that I can emulate her selflessness and giving to others as she did throughout her life. Thank you Auntie Joan may you rest in peace, love Warren - Posted by: Warren Goulet (Nephew) on: Feb 18, 2012

• To my only mom, who I loved forever, you will always be with me each and every day, I see you everyday on my phone, as in life you're my home page, you're always looking at me, you're pain is gone. - Posted by: david (son) on: Feb 18, 2012

• I love my aunty. She was always so very kind to me. Everytime I saw her I always told her I love her and gave her hugs 'n kisses. She was the light of day. Always so happy. I was always around her and my grandma Sandra as a child. My favorite memory was when me and my cousin Monique put a play on for her with puppets. Or if we wanted to play outside she would watch us from the window. And the walks were always fun. I love how she would always call my brother Billy instead of Mikey. She was soft-spoken with a loud heart. And I love you my dearest aunty. I will miss you dearly & keep you and the others in my heart forever. My condolences to the family. - Posted by: amber (aunty) on: Feb 18, 2012

• I will always treasure memories of times spent with you Aunty Joan, and I enjoyed our phone conversations on my long ride home after work. What a wonderfully fun woman, and you are greatly missed. It's so sad to have to say goodbye, but I know it's not forever....we'll meet again in Heaven where we can joke, and reminisce once more! Loving thoughts always.... - Posted by: Kim Ellison (niece) on: Feb 18, 2012

• Aunty Joan will always have a special place in my heart as a caring, sweet woman who loved her family passionately. Her biggest joy was her children and her walls were filled with photos of family. I will always remember her silly sense of humour and the way that she could make me smile with the simplest, little comment. Joan, you were and still are a unique lady and I love you eternally. We will dance and sing for joy in heaven one day! Love to all of the family xx Hang in there :) - Posted by: Cheryl (neice) on: Feb 18, 2012
