Joan was a lifetime resident of Medicine Hat and will be missed by her brother John (Carol) MacLaren and sister, Rosella (Dave) Morin who also survive her, along with Harvey’s extended family including brothers, Ralph and Rueben (Violet) and all their families. She treasured her family, taking great pride in all their accomplishments. Joan and Harvey leave a legacy of love which we all can aspire to in our own relationships, a marriage of 63 years, a loving family and a pursuit of all things good in life. Joan was lead through her life by her faith in God and the community that she built through the church. She enjoyed hosting family and friends in her home and picnics in the park. We will fondly remember her famous baked goods and delicious cooking, often including fresh vegetables and pickles from their amazing garden. The family wish to thank the paramedics, Dr. Parks, the exceptional nurses and administrators in the emergency department of the Medicine Hat Regional Hospital for their sensitive and compassionate care. A Private Graveside Celebration of Joan’s life will be held at Hillside Cemetery on Sunday, June 26, 2022, with Pastor Murray Jaster officiating.
