Joan Stanton Fitting

Joan was such a lovely, vibrant and gracious person. She welcomed our family to Buckingham when we first moved there in 1965 and instigated our first trip to the ocean. I know she and my mother, Lue Hansen, kept in touch and had occasional lunches over the years. It was an unexpected pleasure to see her again and to meet Don when I helped my mother move into Pine Run.
Condolences to Don and all Joan’s extended family, especially Karen. It’s particularly difficult losing a loved when...

RIP Dear Joan. To live a life half as full and important as yours would be a blessing. Your love of family (both human and animal!) and community was inspiring. You offered your friendship freely and without reservation; it was a cherished gift indeed. Our heartfelt condolences to all who will grieve your loss.

Donna and Paul Trenchard

Joan defined Life; what drive to squeeze the most out of every day! She brought out the best in all of us and her spirit will survive in us. My sincere condolences to Don and her beloved family.

Oh, Joan, what a wonderful life you led! And Don, bless your broken heart...my thoughts were first with you when I read of Joan's passing and her wonderfully full life as told in her beautiful obituary. Do you remember when I came to visit you and Joan at your Solebury home? It was in 2004 when I was on medical leave from The Intelligencer, recovering from right knee surgery. My father was my driver that day. As I recall, As I sat in your living room visiting with Joan, you were there, I met...

Joan was a very special person and will be missed. We worked together in Doylestown, PA, when she was the librarian at The Intelligencer newspaper. We kept in touch after she and I left the paper. I am so sorry for your loss.
