Condolences
Dear Brooks family, especially Patti who I had the most to do with. Just thinking of you and sending sincere condolences. I loved your Mum and it was very special to watch the funeral service. I was grateful to be able to do so. Keep on just as your dear Mum did, and your end will be like hers. Much love, Carol Gray
My deepest sympathy to Joan's family on her passing. Joan was a very special lady & I loved when she & Bill came to the Carriage House Inn for breakfast. Joan & my dad Leo Sheftel had a wonderful relationship. She brought dad & myself sunshine & laughter.
She will always be remembered. I wish you no more sorrow.
Warmly,
Sheila Gurevitch
A wonderful lady in every way. Many pleasant memories of days gone by when healthy happy times were enjoyed along with Kay and Steve. Inspite of poor health these last years, we saw less of her but when we did she was an example of a faithful, inspiring lady enduring with a sense of humor and wit. A true example of a virtuous woman ....so lucky Kelly and Patty to have such a mom and we offer our condolences to you as we know she will leave an emptiness in your hearts. Don and Jo-Ann
Our thoughts are with you in your of loss Kelly & Patti. It was special to listen to the memorial service yesterday for your mother & our friend Joan. It was so appropriate & real. Thankyou Patti for your part. It was touching to see my Mom & Joan in one of the pictures. They were true friends.
I have wonderful memories of time with your Mom & Dad. You were the first adopted children I knew & I remember asking my Mom’ Am I adopted? ‘and she laughed. I suppose with 5 siblings & 12 years between us she thought it was obvious. I believe I was named after your Mom.
We loved your Dad’s sense of humour.
Joan had a sense of style and we admired how together & how attractively she dressed. Yes ..the shoes we loved them too.
Please know I care & feel fortunate Bill Joan Kelly & Patti have been a part of my life.
Helen Anne & I visited your Mom two years ago. It was enjoyable.
Lovingly
Doug & Joan( Massey) Beach
I was thinking of Joan’s upcoming birthday the day I was notified of her death. She was steadfast even in her toughest days. She never forgot a birthday of mine or my girls. I valued her care and concern and I know she was always praying for me. She will be missed.
Our heartfelt condolences and love to the family.
Enjoyed some fun visits sharing a jest or two with her and her enjoyment of that.
Beautiful to see a life faithful to the end.
Beryl and Ralph Knight

R.I.P our dear Auntie Joan. You were more of a Mom to us than an Aunt. You and Uncle Bill...were our second parents! You will be dearly and lovingly missed. So many many good memories of so many many good times. You will be in our hearts forever! Thank you for your life. Thank you for your love. Thank you, for being you. Every time I have toast with a big thick slice of tomato on it...I will remember and celebrate you!
Dear Patty, Kelly and Tala,
We have so many wonderful memories of Joan ever since we had the privilege of meeting in her & Bill's home in 1980 - she has a special place in our hearts.
Thinking of you.
Love,
Gwen, Everette and family...
Thinking of you so much Patti and Kelly and families. Loved both your Mom and Dad so much. Hope wonderful memories will help you through this difficult time. Love Brenda
Sincere condolences on the loss of Joan. Had some good times together.
Bill and Joan - you were awesome people! Quick witted, joking, loving, caring and understanding. And never afraid to call it like it was.
I really appreciated my time with both of them and to this day I still think of them as Bill and Joan, even though Bill has been gone for seven yrs.
Bill and Joan went to my parents home when I was in my late teens and early twenties. Bill thought it was best to pass the meeting onto the a younger generation, and so we ended up with a meeting in at my parents. This is how I got to know Bill and Joan.
Even though I wasn't one of their grandchildren I could feel that they loved me and my wife. They always took an interest in me and wanted to know what was going on in my life. Joan would always ask me Sunday morning, "Are you keepin outta trouble, cause I know what your like. I know where you were Friday night." She didn't literally know, but I certainly knew what she meant. This could seem annoying to many in there late teens or early twenties. But because Joan would say this with a joking style with the undertones of love, understanding and encouragement I actually appreciated it and it was encouraging.
Bill and Joan you were both leaders in our meeting and I love you both. Thank you for coming all the way to Hamilton to our wedding. Sarah and I really appreciated it so much.
As long as my mind is sound I will always remember you both.
Love Brent Stewart
Dear Patricia and Kelly and Family
I was special to be acquainted with your folks over the years. Your moms failing health didn't diminish her love for the things of God. She has left us a faithful example and both your dad and mom have left you a faithful heritage. They have left us a wonderful influence. I count it a privilege to have known them. With love and sympathy to you & your families.

Thinking of you Kelly and Patricia and family. Fond memories of your family when we were growing up. It is a comfort knowing your mother lived for this day, and will go on to much better!
