Wheeler, Joan Helen
Joan passed away peacefully at Sunnyside Home in Kitchener on Tuesday, April 18, 2023 at the age of 84.
Born in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, she was a daughter of the late James and Wilda (nee Gibbons) McAfee.
Joan was predeceased by her beloved husband, Frank Wheeler, in 2018, and by her sister Lois Morton Murray.
She was the much-loved mother of Rhonda Wheeler-Grein (Steve McKenna), Kevin Wheeler (Wendy Campbell), Dwayne Wheeler (Jill Clements); cherished Grandma to Terry (Laura), Brent (Courtney), Vanessa, Kyle, Jacob, James, Catherine and Laurel and Great Grandma to Peyton, Avary, Kaelin, Declan, Tayla and Jordan. She is survived by her step-mother Winnie Stadelbauer and her sister Melodee McAfee and many McAfee cousins. Joan will be remembered fondly by the Wheeler family and by her many nieces, nephews and their families.
Joan was a loving and supportive wife, mother and grandmother and great grandmother. She enjoyed spending time walking, biking, reading and she was a great shopper. Joan and Frank relocated wherever his job as a police officer took them. They have lived in Meaford, Hanover, Kitchener, Mount Forest, and eventually were very happy to retire back ‘home’ to Meaford. In more recent years both Frank and Joan required some extra care and support and their family will be forever grateful to the wonderful staff at Cider Mill at Sunnyside Home for everything they have done to make their time there more comfortable.
A funeral service will be conducted at Ferguson Funeral Home in Meaford on Friday, April 28, 2023 at 1:30 p.m., with a service of committal and interment following at Lakeview Cemetery in Meaford.
