Joan Dowling, 91 of North Vancouver passed away peacefully after a short stay in hospice October 20, 2023.

Born January 30, 1932, in Glasgow, Scotland. Predeceased by her four siblings, her husband of 56 years Richard (Dick) (2013) and daughter (Joan) (2019). Survived by son Mark (Davinder) and grandchildren Shandly and Aidan whom she loved very much.

Born, raised, and spent her youth in Glasgow. In 1953 she left her family and Glasgow with her fiancé Richard for a new adventure in New Zealand, was married and lived there until 1957 where they immigrated to Vancouver. A few years later (1964) they built a home in North Vancouver where she happily resided until her passing.

Joan loved family, travelling, gardening and everything about North Vancouver. Joan was a devout catholic and spent much of her time after Dick's passing attending, and volunteering at her church.
