Predeceased by her loving husband of 64 years, George, her brother Harvey Naylor, and her very close cousin Gwen Baylis Thornton. Mother of Larry (Carmelina), Dave (Mae) and Doug (Karen). Grandmother of Christina (Matthew), Mark, Matthew and Joanne and great grandmother of Evelyn. Joan volunteered in the library at Humber Hospital for 40 years and was an active member of numerous Anglican churches. Joan and George enjoyed their time at the cottage on Lake Couchiching, but also loved to travel, exploring Canada from coast to coast including up to the Yukon, crossing the Atlantic by ship twice and venturing to numerous other vacation locations. She was an avid gardener, loved to bake, and hosted many wonderful Christmas night Birthday-Boxing Day open house celebrations for her brother Harv and sister-in-law Marie. Thank you to the staff at Sunrise of Erin Mills for their wonderful and gentle care over the past several months. Special thanks to Jesse and France who helped keep her moving.
