Joan was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother and adored spending time with her family. She lived every day to the fullest and spent many days vacationing and shopping. She enjoyed relaxing at the beaches, especially in Aruba and Cape Cod. Joan enjoyed taking the time to decorate each season for the upcoming holiday; Christmas was always her favorite.
