TURNBULL, Joan

With heavy hearts, we say farewell to Joan Turnbull, beloved wife of 65 years and best friend to her husband, Don.

Joan passed away peacefully on August 1, 2024, at Lady Minto Hospital on Salt Spring Island, B.C., where she lived for over forty years. Born in Montreal, Quebec, Joan was predeceased by her husband. She leaves to mourn her sister Wendy McDonald of Calgary, Alta.; her brother Bill Phillips of Delta, B.C.; sister-in-law Bev Phillips; her nieces Catharine Uitto of Delta, B.C. and Bonnie Phillips of Surrey, B.C.; her nephews Liam McDonald of Lethbridge, Alta. and Cody McDonald of Calgary, Alta.; and her Salt Spring Island, B.C. community.

Joan was loved by all who knew her. We take comfort in knowing that those who live in our hearts are never truly gone and will remain with us forever.
