Joan Duval, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on June 14, 2024, at the age of 90. Born January 25th 1934, Joan lived a life filled with love, dedication, and resilience. As a devoted military spouse, she supported her husband, Ronald, through deployments and relocations, embodying strength and grace through the challenges of military life. Joan's nurturing spirit was the cornerstone of her family. She was the cherished mother of two sons, Ron Jr. and Doug, whom she raised with unwavering love and guidance. Her joy multiplied as she became a grandmother to four grandchildren, Rene, Charles, Travis, and Nicholas, and later, a great-grandmother to four great-grandchildren, Ava, Payton, Milah, and Torren. Her legacy is one of unconditional love, support, and the importance of family. Joan's kindness, wisdom, and infectious smile touched the hearts of everyone who knew her. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends, but her memory will live on in the countless lives she touched. Joan's life was a testament to the strength and beauty of a life well-lived, surrounded by those she loved.
