Joan Dempsey Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Joan was a devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend whose warmth and kindness touched everyone she met. She is survived by her two beloved children, five cherished grandchildren, her loving sister, three adored nephews, and her former husband, Pat, with whom she shared many years and raised their children. Her legacy of love, laughter, and generosity, will live on through them and all who knew her.
A private service will be held to celebrate her life. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that loved ones honor her memory by sharing time, kindness, and love with those around them - just as she always did.

My memories of Joan are very vivid to me because she was a wonderful nurse and friend. We had many laughs together, as well as some tears. She was a kind, compassionate, loving person and there will be no one that can match these qualities quite as Joan. God rest your soul my friend. May God greet you with His words" Well done, my good and faithful servant."
