It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Joan Lorraine Horwood on Saturday, January 30, 2010 with her family by her side at the Health Sciences Centre. Predeceased by husband: Clarence Horwood. Leaving to mourn with many happy and loving memories are her sons: Douglas of Alberta and Harold (Judy) of Labrador City; four grandchildren: Lalanya, Mark, Cindy and Elesha; six great-grandchildren; a very special daughter-like-friend: Bonnie Clarke; three nieces: Grace (Doug), Bonnie (Jim) and Elizabeth. She will also be missed by many close friends whom she considered her extended family in Labrador and Upper Gullies. Throughout her courageous battle with cancer she would still greet you with a smile and kept her great sense of humour. Please and thank-you remained a part of her vocabulary.
