She is also survived by her two grandsons, David Gregory, son of Gregory Charles and Erin Michael, wife Karen, son of Kimberly Brinker, and two beautiful great grandchildren, Chase and Ella.  


Joan was happiest when surrounded by her family. She loved hosting 4th of July picnics in the backyard every year, always making her homemade wedding soup. She enjoyed traveling to Rehoboth Beach with her family. Joan was an avid Bingo player, whether at a local carnival or bus trips to New York, she enjoyed Bingo.
