Joan M. Wilson
April 11, 1928 – May 5, 2015
Joan Martha (McIver) Wilson was born on April 11, 1928 in Virginia, Minnesota to Norman & Irene McIver and passed away peacefully on May 5, 2015. Joan was a Providence trained RN and lead nurse prior to giving birth to her first child. Joan married her great love, George Lewis Wilson on December 27, 1956. Joan was preceded in death by her loving husband, George (September 13, 2004) and her granddaughter, Madeline Troxel Wilson (November 20, 1993). Joan is survived by her sister, Barbara Bichsel, as well as her loving children, Brian (Diane), Teresa (Paul), Gregory (Maureen), Anne (Garry) and Eileen (Bob). She is also survived by her loving grandchildren, Kyle (Laura), Katie (Kevin), Lauren, Blake, Caleb, Stephanie, Christian, Grant and Halle Joan. Joan was looking forward to the birth of her first great grandchild later this year. Joan is also survived by many loving nieces and nephews. Joan was a strong, selfless woman whose family was always the priority. She will be greatly missed by all those who loved her. Our lives will never be the same. Rest in peace sweet mother.
Joan will be greatly missed by family and friends. She had a wonderful spirit. Rest in peace, Joan.
I met Joan shortly after marrying Orv Anderson and moving to Kent. She was such a help to me in those early days and I so admired her and her ability to run that family ship! She loved her brood and it was so obvious that her life revolved around their happiness. She was a thoughtful and loving person and will be missed.
