KRAFT, Joan (MacDonald)
November 6, 1926 – April 15, 2019
In the early morning hours of Monday, April 15, 2019, Joan Kraft slipped away painlessly and with gentle dignity. Joan’s significant interest and great strength was in prose and poetry. Her passion was writing. She delighted in, and was supportive of, her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She loved them, and they will always love her.
In their 69 years together, Joan and Lawrence worked hard and enjoyed one another’s company, especially at Seymour Arm where they were known as ‘the oldest teenagers on the beach”. Joan was predeceased by her husband, Lawrence (2016), her sons, Kevin (1997) Lawrie (1974), her parents, Hugh and Margeurite, and four brothers, Gerald, Clarence, Jack and Archie.
Joan is remembered and celebrated by her sister, Rochelle Evans, her daughters, Donna Kelly (David), Karin Benjamin (Barry); her granddaughters, Carolina (Richard), Katrina (Sean), Chantelle (Keith), Bridget (Rob), Natalie (Jared), Sarah (Mark), great-grandchildren and nieces and nephews.
Joan’s family is grateful for the wonderful care extended to Joan by the staff at Mountain View Seniors Housing in Sundre. There will be a Celebration of Joan’s Life at Sundre Seniors Supportive Living Facility, 749 6 St SW, Sundre, AB on Wednesday, June 5, 2019 at 2:00 pm.
Memorial tributes may be made directly to Alzheimer’s Society of Calgary, 800, 7015 MacLeod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 2K5.
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Joan Kraft MacDonald April 15th 2019..
