It is with a sad heart we share the news of the passing of our Mom Joan on Sunday October 2, 2020.

She is predeceased by her partner of 36 years, Harold E. Rush, by her parents Greta & Lloyd Merrill. She is survived by her brothers Ron Merrill (Vera) and Paul Merrill (Tish).

Joan will be missed by her daughters Sherry Newman (Mike Vezina), Becky Bonn (Will Mason), Marie Hall-Rush (James Chevalier).  She is the loving grandma to Jacob ( Danyelle Lachowich), James (Monika Kulczynska) and Grace Newman, Celina Vezan, Cory & Kevin Hall and Dustin Chevalier. Joan was overjoyed to be a great grandma to Gavin Newman

On behalf of our mother, we would like to thank all of her Doctors and Nurses, the staff of LHIN, all of PSW’s and finally to the wonderful people at Innisfree House that took such good care of Mom and us in her final days.  Thank you also to Tri-City Cremation Services for all they do.

With all our love, we send our mother into the next part of her journey.
 
“Catch you on the Flip Side Mom”
