Obituary of Joan Walters
With her family by her side, Joan passed after a brief but couragous battle with cancer on Sunday March 3, 2019, Joan Friske, age 83 years. Loving and devoted wife of Thomas for 64 years. Dear mother of Don (Jenny), Michael (Carol Ann), Renfrew, Larry (Heather), Eganville, Harry (Carla), Renfrew, Ann (John) Gwyn, Land O Lakes, Wisconsin, Brian, Renfrew, Joyce (Kevin) Moore, Cobden.

Mom will be remembered as a devout Catholic who had a strong belief in the power of prayer. She was a skilled card player who enjoyed teaching her grandchildren the game of Euchre. Mom was also a long time Blue Jays fan who enjoyed Saturday afternoon ball games – particularly in Dacre where she and Tom spent their summer weekends. Mom also enjoyed the occasional game of Bingo.
