GIBSON, Joan Helen (nee Goulding)
March 3, 1932 – January 6, 2012

It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of Joan, a sister, mother and grandmother who has left us peacefully with dignity and respect. She will be deeply missed by her sister Ann Mortimer C.M. of Newmarket, Ont., a son Bill, daughters Linda, Leanne (Willy) and Leslie along with eight grandchildren and two nephews. Mom was predeceased by her parents Tom and Evelyn Goulding of Colborne, Ontario. Mom courageously fought many medical difficulties over the past few years and was determined each time to prevail.

For all those who knew Mom, she was a handful at the best of times, spontaneous and mischievous and kept everyone around her on their toes.

The family would like to thank everyone at Sun Pointe Village who truly made it Mom’s home. Their dedication and compassion will never be forgotten. We have had the privilege of working along side some very special care aides. Our journey with Mom would not have been possible without the assistance of Dr. Penney. We are truly thankful for his help and advice over the past many years.

We leave Mom with her “Angels” …off on her next adventure, enjoying the sunshine, eating her ice cream and shopping somewhere.

Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.mem.com.
