Obituary

Joan was born in Brookville, Indiana to Amy (nee Willey) and Irvin Jones on June 22, 1933. She graduated from McGuffey High School and married her lifelong sweetheart, Don, on August 1, 1954 in Kumler Chapel. 

She was a skilled cook who loved to spend time in the kitchen and also in her garden. Joan worked at Talawanda Schools for 27 years in the cafeteria as a cook. She also worked for a local clothing store. In her spare time she loved to tend to her garden and cook for her family. Don loved to travel and took Joan all over the country visiting over 35 states. She was also a lifelong member of St. Matthew Lutheran Church. But mostly she was known for her deep and abiding love for her family.
