Joan was a long-standing active member of St. Alphonsus Parish. Her forty-eight years as a nurse was a perfect fit in establishing and founding the St. Al’s Nurses Ministry. Joan was active in the St. Joan of Arc Guild until it disbanded. She then volunteered for many church and school functions. These included maintaining the gardens, and helping in the school cafeteria and library. Joan provided caring support to parishioners who were undergoing medical issues by phoning them and checking in. Whenever St. Alphonsus held a drive to build, maintain a need, Joan provided generously to support the cause. In loving memory of Joan, we are thankful for her dedication and support of St. Alphonsus parish.
